Balance is more than being steady.

Balance problems can make everyday activities feel uncertain from standing up and walking across a room to stepping outside, using stairs, or moving through a crowded space.

But balance is more than simply being steady. It depends on your strength, coordination, sensation, vision, vestibular system, and your brain’s ability to process all of that information together.

Join Rachel Higdon, PT, a neuro physical therapist, for a free educational webinar explaining why balance can become difficult after stroke and other neurological injuries, what recovery can look like, and the strategies that may help you continue improving.
