Balance cushions are versatile training aids used in the fields of physiotherapy, fitness and rehabilitation. They support coordination training and promote stability as well as balance. The cushions are usually made of robust, skin-friendly material such as PVC and are available in various designs and sizes to meet individual needs.
Typical balance cushions have a diameter of approximately 33 to 60 cm and are available in various colours such as blue, grey, red or taupe. They can be used as a seat cushion to activate the core muscles, or for balance exercises while standing. Some models have a knobbed surface, which additionally promotes sensory perception.
When purchasing a balance cushion, attention should be paid to the appropriate size and surface. An included pump mechanism makes it easier to inflate the cushion and adjust its firmness. Balance cushions are practical and flexible training devices that can be used both in a professional therapeutic setting and for individual training at home.
