Balance & Fall Prevention in Los Altos
Evidence‑based programs to prevent falls and protect independence — tailored for older adults in Los Altos.
Why Fall Prevention Matters in Los Altos
For older adults in Los Altos, the risk of falling isn’t just a possibility—it’s a serious and growing danger. Every second of every day, an older adult falls in the United States. These falls can lead to broken bones, head injuries, hospitalizations, and even a permanent loss of independence. That’s why balance and fall‑prevention programs in Los Altos aren’t optional; they are essential.
At Self Care Healing Arts, we specialize in helping older adults stay safe, strong, and self‑reliant. Our fall‑prevention classes are evidence‑based, engaging, and designed for real‑world results.
S.A.I.L. (Stay Active and Independent for Life)
S.A.I.L. is a proven fitness program that improves:
- Strength
- Balance
- Flexibility
- Endurance
Classes use simple exercises—standing or seated—that build confidence for daily activities like walking, climbing stairs, and rising from a chair. By preventing gradual physical decline, S.A.I.L. reduces fall risk and helps seniors maintain independence.
Tai Chi: Moving for Better Balance (TCMBB)
Based on traditional Chinese martial arts, Tai Chi for Better Balance is gentle, low‑impact, and highly effective. Research shows Tai Chi improves postural control, coordination, and stability. It also reduces fear of falling, making it ideal for adults with arthritis, chronic conditions, or existing balance concerns.
