New balance exercise machine with health benefits

[Category : - HEALTH- Fitness]
[Viewed 760 times]

Ageing and disability leads to poor mobility, a deterioration of balance and weakening of the musculoskeletal system. This increases the risk of accidents and falls. Every year, 1 in 3 elderly people in the EU and the UK will suffer a fall, resulting in 3.5 million fractures and a £40bn cost of treatment. 33% of those people with a hip fracture will die within a year. Balance training reduces the rate and hospital admissions by up to 55%, in addition to speeding up recovery times.

Formula Motion will satisfy an unmet market for low cost, simple and effective multifunctional rehabilitation and balance training. Patented system enables a wide range of beneficial movements.
The benefits have been confirmed by medical and sports professionals after assessing the prototype.
We already have interest from a number of commercial end-users/customers.

Formula Motion answers one of the UK governments ‘four grand challenges’ Link
Strength and balance training has been identified as an effective intervention to reduce falls by NICE. Link
The annual cost of fragility fractures to the UK £4.4 billion.
