        Balance & Mobility Traning Program

        General Info
        FallProofâ„¢ which was developed and validated at the Center for Successful Aging at California State University at Fullerton, is scientifically tested and shown to improve balance and mobility and to reduce the risk of falls. FallProofâ„¢ was recognized in 2003 by the National Council on Aging as one of seven exemplary model programs promoting healthy aging and improved quality of life. It is valuable for those who feel insecure with balance and mobility, as well as independent adults in the middle years who would like to find out how good their balance really is and to work on the roots of potential balance problems at their early, silent stages. This program is being offered in New York by Cindy Newton, PT, who is a Certified FallProofâ„¢ Instructor.

        Overall

        Cindy Newton is an extraordinary physical therapist. She treats my elderly mother, who has balance problems, difficulty walking and a history of falls. My mother's had several physical therapists over a decade, and almost all have been excellent, but Cindy is truly in a league of her own.



        The foremost thing that sets Cindy apart is that she is ambitious for my mother. She doesn't just work on strength, or on getting her used to canes and walkers. She concentrates on getting my mother to her maximum potential, to achieving well-adjusted gait and on properly balanced movement. She is attentive to the smallest details.



        With her, my mother has made remarkable improvement--she's walking better than she has in years. I watch in amazement and joy.



        Cindy is very intelligent and applies her clearly superb multi-disciplinary training to create what I believe might be an approach that is unique to her. She is also kind, gentle, respectful, but tough enough to motivate. My mother adores her, and so do I. She's a light that turned on in our lives.
