Balance

The Balance tool helps you understand how your body stays steady using signals from your inner ear, your senses, and your eyes.

Overview

Balance is a complex system in humans managed by the integration of inputs from the vestibular, proprioceptive, and visual systems. Any alteration in these inputs due to factors like illness or injury can lead to changes in balance perception, which may result in distress. This tool provides a concise visual explanation of how these systems contribute to our experience of balance, equipping therapists with essential knowledge for diagnosis and discussion.
