Here we cover a huge reason why people end up in nursing homes and how you can prevent it. By not falling! Now, preventing falls doesn’t come just from picking up rugs or having someone fall proof your house. It comes from maintaining our bodies in a way that maintains balance. Here we discuss science-backed methods for fall prevention as we age and how you can use them, with a focus on a special type of exercise that will change your body to prevent falls no matter where you’re at or what you’re doing.
