Whether you work in fitness or strength training, exercise physiology, rehabilitation physiotherapy, Feldenkrais, yoga or Tai Chi, the Multimetric Balance Mat can assist you to manage the health and wellbeing of your clients.
Results from this new electronic balance assessment device can help you develop targeted programs that take accurate balance data from four different standing positions: normal, tandem, right foot, left foot.
It’s simple. It’s quick. It’s easy.
How does it work?
Driven by MultiMetrix technology, balance data from the small postural adjustments a person makes to remain standing is displayed in the form of a dynamic graph and numerical rating or score.
Results are available instantly, can be viewed during the test and stored in an online score information system (SIS) or printed out on paper and kept on file for monitoring clients’ balance and health or fitness status over time.
Data collected is in the form of name, gender, year of birth, any known medical conditions or other notes as well as the graph and score.
