A Matter of Balance
A Matter of Balance is an 8-week structured group intervention that emphasizes practical strategies to reduce fear of falling and increase activity levels. Participants learn to view falls and fear of falling as controllable, set realistic goals to increase activity, change their environment to reduce fall risk factors, and exercise to increase strength and balance. Classes offered in and around the community by request.
A Matter of Balance is run by Linda Watkins, Injury Prevention Coordinator at Inova Trauma Center – Fairfax. For more information on this program, please contact her at linda.watkins@inova.org or call 703-776-3259.
