How It Works
Product Introduction Guide
The Total Balance Board is a training system designed to improve balance, coordination, and strength — especially helpful for older adults or those in recovery. It helps train the body to respond confidently to real-life movement and balance challenges.
Front of Board & back of Board Guide
The Total Balance Board is designed for easy and safe use. The front of the board is marked with a red stability ball, which helps you identify the direction and adds grip for foot control. On the front, there are outside and inside pole holes — the outside holes are used for most beginner exercises, while the inside holes are used when resistance bands are attached.
Complete Balance Board Setup
The Total Balance Board is a compact training system designed for stability, strength, and movement control. It includes support poles inserted into either the inside or outside pole holes, depending on the type of exercise. Each pole features a locking clip for security and an extra-grip handle extension for comfort.
How It Works – The Method
Get Oriented
- Place the board on a non-slip surface.
- Hold the poles for safety.
- Start by getting comfortable with basic foot placement and board height.
Learn Core Movements
- Start with exercises like “Tap the Board” and “Step and Press.”
- These build initial strength and teach foot control.
Build Confidence with Motion
- Progress to “Rocking” and “Ladder Steps”.
- These help you handle side-to-side and shifting weight.
Advance to Full Balance Work
- Do exercises like “V Step”, “Single Leg Balance”, and “SeeSaw”.
- These improve single-leg stability and control.
Add Band Resistance (Strength + Stability)
- Use the included bands for upper/lower body strength while balancing.
- Exercises like Bicep Curls, Squats, and Lifts build everyday strength.
Real-Life Challenge Training
- Practice walking across the board.
- Learn how to “rock off” safely to mimic real-life recovery
- Final drills even include “Rock and Run” to simulate fall recovery reflexes.
Safety Tips
- Always hold the poles.
- Use the board on a non-slip surface.
- Start slow — don’t rush.
- Keep body within the poles.
- Stop if tired or unbalanced.
The Total Balance Secret
Total Balance’s patented Balance Training Board design addresses and corrects the three critical elements of balance and movement:
- Body Strength
- Positive Body Alignment
- Neurological Brain Connections
- Loss of balance and stability
- Difficulty walking
- Overexertion to compensate for lost combined functionality
- Loss of confidence in movement
- Lack of exercise for the heart and thus less blood flow
- Fear that affects quality of life
How Total Balance Works
Total Balance helps solve balance issues by helping you retrain both your mind and body in the areas of balance and stability. Total Balance creates new neural connections to help balance your brain. New connections re-integrate and synclody movements to create confidence in body function, mobility and posture.
By simply stepping onto the board, and holding the stability poles you immediately begin to strengthen both legs, your arms and overall body. With a few simple maneuvers your brain begins to reprogram itself to provide your body better balance and mobility.
As a person ages or recovers from a debilitating injury or surgery, the body needs to regain or maintain one or more of these elements with confidence to function successfully.
Body mechanics require a direct and immediate correlation between muscles, ligaments, tendons, skeletal structure and the nervous system (brain recognition) in order to maintain posture and balance.
Total Balance Board brings all three elements of movement back
If the body is not strong enough to hold its own weight, move fast enough to react, or push back against an unwanted directional lean, it will fall.
The Total Balance Board provides a complete top to bottom, left to right, front to back re-training of what the body used to do and wants to do again. Most people have had excellent natural balance since they first learned to walk and took it for granted. Now, for the first time they can remember, balance is a challenge.
Brain Connectivity
Brain connectivity to the body is critical to all movement. The body’s ability to instigate and react to movement changes is called proprioception.
Proprioception is the body’s ability to receive input through receptors in the skin, muscles and joints and transfer the information to the brain through the nervous system so that the body can sense itself. This is the most exciting discovery from results achieved from the Total Balance Board.
