Benefits of wobble board exercises * Wobble boards are effective for improving your sense of proprioception, which is strongly linked to balance. Exercises can start at a very easy level which are suitable for everyone, and can easily be progressed to more challenging exercises for even the most advanced athlete. * There are several different types of balance board available. They mainly vary in size and material, although rocker boards and wobble cushions are also available and work in a very similar way. * Wobble boards are most commonly used in the rehabilitation of ankle injuries such as ankle sprains, although they should also be used for other lower leg and knee injuries. They can also be used for upper limb injuries, especially the shoulder. This is important in people involved in throwing or similar activities. * These exercises are best performed in bare feet and on a soft floor such as a carpet (not deep-pile!) or a rug or mat, rather than a hard floor such as wood as the board is liable to slip. If you are new to this, ensure there is a wall or something close by that you can reach for if you loose your balance.
