Trucking Princess: I purchased this to practice my balance exercises after my 2nd brain stem surgery. My Vestibular NEURO PT said I should buy one.

I admit at first I didn't use it much as I should. Well 11 months later my balance took a nose dive like I was fresh out of brain surgery so back to Neuro PT I had to go. This time around I started using it more a long with BlazePods and use it daily now.

It has withheld a lot of force. From my 340# elderly father using it to my niece and nephew that think it's a jumping thing! It's still has managed to hold it's firmness.

Unfortunately for me my feet go numb quickly due to my neuropathy! But I still push through.

Fellow User: This pad was very helpful after I had my right hip replacement, total hip replacement. Initially when physical therapy came over they had me do inside hard floor for all the different exercise. After a while, I graduated to having to step stand on this pad, which help me learn to do uneven ground, so it was very helpful to get me prepared to go walking outside on things like grass or uneven ground. Thank you.

DickieCoon: This appears to be identical to the pad used by my physical therapist. The exercise is to step over some low obstacle onto this pad. Since the pad is soft, it’s a bit of a challenge for a person to stand on. When the patient is standing with both feet on the pad, they bend over and manually transfer small objects between two bins. As the patient does this exercise, their balance shifts slightly constantly. This exercise helps rebuild their standing balance. The patient is constantly stepping on and off the pad. They have to lift their feet high enough to clear the box sides. It’s a whole lot of standing and stooping.

Instead of using junk to step over like at the PT clinic, I used scrap cardboard and tape to construct a custom, shallow cardboard tray to contain the pad. The PT patient had to step over the edge of the box in order to step onto the pad. In addition, the box served to contain other items necessary for the exercise so it was easy to store everything between use. We used this pad a couple of times per day to help restore standing and dynamic balance for a stroke patient.
