The elderly population lose their balance frequently. For them to perform their self care safely, they need to have good balance.

Here are the exercises:
1. Hand Pumping
2. Ankle pumping
3. Looking up and down- moving your head up and down
4. head turning side to side
5. neck circles
6. Reaching side to side

I’d just like to say thank you for sharing this video. My husband practices this before standing up and walking practice. Although he is not senior, he had a brainstem surgery not long ago and has a hypotension issue at the moment.
