How to use the balance trainer correctly

• Place the balance trainer on a flat, clean, dry and non-slip surface.
• Begin near firm support such as a wall, table or stable chair.
• Master two-foot standing before progressing to single-leg exercises.
• Move slowly and with control, without abrupt weight shifts.
• Keep the knees slightly bent and avoid fully locking them during exercise.
• Do not use the balance trainer near stairs, edges, wet surfaces or furniture with sharp corners.
• Do not introduce eyes-closed exercise, rapid changes of position or added loading until basic stability is well established.
• Stop exercising if pain, dizziness, tingling, instability or loss of movement control occurs.

Pharmacist's advice

A softer balance trainer creates a greater stability challenge, but more instability is not automatically the best choice for every user. Exercises should be introduced gradually and with stable support until safe control is established. In cases of a recent injury, swelling, ankle or knee instability, acute back pain, dizziness, significant balance difficulties or post-operative recovery, exercise selection and progression should be adapted with a physiotherapist or physician.

Frequently asked questions

Is the blue balance trainer softer than the green one?
Yes. The blue trainer has a softer structure and creates a greater challenge for balance, proprioception and movement control compared with the green firm trainer.

Is the Blue Soft Balance Trainer suitable for beginners?
It can suit users who have already mastered basic exercises on a more stable surface or the green firm trainer. Complete beginners should begin near firm support.

Can I stand on the trainer with one foot?
Yes, but only after you can safely maintain balance with both feet. Introduce single-leg exercise gradually and near stable support.

Can the balance trainer be used after an ankle injury?
It may be included in a recovery programme when a physiotherapist or physician determines that proprioception exercises are appropriate for the current rehabilitation stage.

Should the balance trainer be used barefoot or with shoes?
The choice depends on the exercise and the user's stability. The most important factor is stable contact with the surface and safe movement control.
