ISBN: 9798190018530 - tai chi for seniors over 60, balance & fall prevention: the complete 28-day seated program to strengthen your base, sharpen your reflexes & walk with confidence again: 3 (6 risultati)

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - One in four adults over sixty-five falls each year. This book is about the other outcome. When Harold Weiss fell twice in one winter, he asked his Tai Chi teacher a question she could not answer: 'Is there something you can teach me that will actually stop me from falling ' It took Margaret Chen three years to build the answer. Most Tai Chi taught to older adults is general practice - good for strength, good for calm, helpful for balance in an indirect way. This program is different. Every form in it was chosen or created to train the specific reflexes your body uses in the three hundred milliseconds after you lose your footing. Inside, you'll find: - Twelve seated forms - six classical Yang-style forms taught with a balance-specific emphasis, plus six forms Margaret developed herself with the help of physical and occupational therapists- Six at-home balance tests with age-based scoring, so you know exactly where you're starting and can measure your progress at Day 28- A complete 28-day program structured around the physiology: Week 1 trains the ankle, Week 2 the hip, Week 3 the protective step, Week 4 integrates everything- A thirty-nine point home safety checklist, organized room by room and designed to be photocopied- Modifications for seven conditions - osteoporosis, arthritis, peripheral neuropathy, Parkinson's disease, post-stroke, vertigo, and orthostatic hypotension- A practical guide to getting up after a fall - the six-step procedure taught by occupational therapists, plus what to do if you cannot get up, and how to make sure you are never alone on the floor for long- Forty-one illustrations in large print, showing every form, every test, and every step- Twelve free companion video tutorials on YouTube, accessible by scanning the QR code This book will not promise you will never fall. No book can. What it offers is capacity: stronger ankles, faster reflexes, a wider margin of stability, and the confidence to move through your day without the constant background hum of fear. Written for adults sixty and older - especially those who have already fallen once and do not intend to fall again.Large Print Edition with 16-point typography. Book 3 in The Chair Tai Chi Series.
