What is the round wooden Balance Board used for?

The round wooden Balance Board is used for coordination exercises, ankle rehabilitation and proprioceptive training. Thanks to the half-sphere fitted beneath the board, it creates controlled instability that stimulates the proprioceptors, improving both static and dynamic balance. It is used both in rehabilitation to aid recovery of the ankle and knee joints, and for injury prevention in athletes.

What are the dimensions and weight of the Balance Board 1011V?

The round wooden Balance Board (item no. 1011V) has a diameter of 400 mm and a height of 60 mm. The product weighs 1.4 kg; these dimensions make it easy to handle and stable for both domestic and professional use in rehabilitation and sport.

What exercises can you do with the Balance Board?

Exercises using the Balance Board can be adjusted in terms of difficulty: sitting with one foot on the board to mobilise the ankle (easy), one foot on the floor and one on the board (medium), both feet on the board to maintain balance (medium), one foot on the board (difficult), both feet on the board with eyes closed (very difficult), right up to exercises involving external disturbances introduced by the instructor (extremely difficult).

How does proprioceptive stimulation work with the Freeman board?

The proprioceptors found in the joints send signals to the central nervous system to provide feedback on the movements the body is making. The Balance Board, by creating instability via the half-sphere beneath the board, stimulates these receptors and helps to restore the motor patterns that ensure static and dynamic balance, thereby rehabilitating or strengthening the ankle and knee joints.

Is the Balance Board also suitable for older people?

Yes, the Balance Board is also suitable for older people. This form of neuromotor stimulation is important for improving many muscular and nervous functions in older people, helping them to maintain their balance and prevent falls. The exercises should be tailored to the individual’s abilities, starting with the easiest levels.

When is the Balance Board used in rehabilitation?

The Balance Board is used in rehabilitation primarily to aid recovery of the ankle and knee joints following injuries or surgery. It helps to restore motor patterns and improve static and dynamic balance. The difficulty of the exercises should be tailored to the individual undergoing training and to their current stage in the rehabilitation programme.

Is the Balance Board also useful for injury prevention in athletes?

Yes, for healthy individuals, the Balance Board can be used to prevent injuries and improve proprioception. Athletes, whether amateur or professional, can use the more advanced exercises (on one foot, with eyes closed, or with disturbances) to enhance joint stability and neuromuscular control.

What materials is the Balance Board 1011V made of?

The Balance Board (item no. 1011V) is made of wood, a durable and well-finished material that guarantees long-lasting use. The wooden construction ensures stability during use and provides a suitable surface for exercises, whether barefoot or wearing shoes, in both domestic and professional settings.

ROUND BALANCE WOODEN BOARD - Round wooden balance board

The Balance Board code 1011V is the classic, durable and well-finished wooden proprioceptive board. It belongs to the so-called unstable bases, for coordination and strength exercises and in particular for ankle rehabilitation.

Dimensions Ø 400 mm, height 60 mm
Weight 1.4 kg

They are proprioceptive boards, or Freeman boards if you prefer, those which, thanks to a hemisphere applied under the board itself, cause instability. Balance boards are used for both rehabilitation and prevention, practices that are mainly aimed at athletes, whether amateurs or professionals. How is proprioception stimulated? First of all, we must remember what the proprioceptors do. They send messages to the central nervous system to provide feedback information, signalling to the brain the movements the body is making. Balance Boards are therefore used to recover (or strengthen) the ankle and knee joints, restoring the motor patterns that ensure static and dynamic balance. This pattern of neuromotor stimulation is also extremely important in an elderly person, who can improve many muscular and nervous faculties with the use of the board.

Here are a few exercises listed on the basis of difficulty:

While seated, one foot on the board to mobilise the ankle (very easy)
One foot on the ground and one on the board to mobilise the ankle (easy)
Both feet on the tablet to try to maintain balance (medium)
One foot on the tablet (difficult)
Two feet on the tablet with eyes closed (very difficult)
As above with the operator disturbing the subject with small pushes (very difficult)

Obviously, the difficulty should be measured on the subject being trained and in relation to where he or she is in the re-education process. In the case of a healthy subject, the last three proposals can be used in combination with the Balance Board, for prevention and improvement of proprioception.
