       Foreword

      BeBalanced!® is a unique sensorimotor training program using the AIREX^® Balance products. The Balance-pads Elite and XLarge enable improvements in all areas of proprioception, sensorimotor function and coordination, meaning they are not only suitable for therapy and rehabilitation but also provide enormous health benefits for people of all ages. The softness of the equipment is the secret to the success of the training program.

      This book uses simple language to demonstrate the relationship between balance, stability and coordination, and their importance for (back) health, posture and sporting activities. A wide variety of target groups can improve their skills using different exercise modules; a short self-test provides feedback on shortcomings or progress.

      The extensively illustrated collection of exercises is the most complete and comprehensive of its kind to have been published for this training equipment, which has been proving its worth in physiotherapy for years.

      Have fun training “on air”!
