Balance System SD | Testimonials

“We use the (Biodex) Balance System with a number of different types of patients. One of my favorite types is the stroke patient. It gives them immediate feedback on affected-side weight bearing. It is also very helpful in rehabilitating patients with Parkinson's disease, who have a tendency of falling backwards without sensing their risky stance. The Balance System can show them feedback that emphasizes that fall risk. But they also can use the machine to practice getting their weight forward on their toes, and being able to control their balance and their center of gravity in ways that they may have been too afraid to attempt prior to Balance System training.”

“When we first began looking at computerized balance trainers, we knew we wanted something versatile and user-friendly because technology that is not practical and accessible often sits idle and unused. All it took was one on-site demonstration and we were hooked on the Biodex Balance System SD. In addition to offering a variety of assessment tools, it has multiple training modules to help our therapists customize each patient's treatment program. The touch screen system is logical and simple to use while the color printouts make it easy to chart patient progress.

We recently took our Balance System SD to a senior exposition and offered free Fall Risk Assessments with both a physical and occupational therapist. In a little over five hours we performed more than 100 assessments! Our booth was clearly the most visited and, while people were waiting in line for their turn on the balance platform, we had ample time to market our full line of rehabilitation services - a win-win situation!”
