How to do it
1 of 6A closer look
Balance pad, extra large
Standing on a hard floor stops asking your feet to do anything. This thick foam pad gives a little under you, so each small sway has to be caught and corrected. It grips carpet; on a smooth floor, set it beside a counter.
Why we carry this one
A big, thick foam pad with room to stand feet apart beside a counter or a chair, so balance practice has space to grow without changing equipment.

FSA/HSA with a doctor's note — what this means
You can pay for this with your FSA or HSA once a doctor has written that you need it for a specific condition. That short note is called a Letter of Medical Necessity.
Ask whoever already treats the problem: your GP, a physical therapist or a specialist. Keep the note with your receipt; you don’t send it to us.
We can’t confirm what your own plan covers. Your plan decides. Full details (opens in a new tab)

What to do with it
The exercise this is for
Written out step by step, with the mistake to watch for and how to make it easier on a bad day.
Others in Safety & Independence
Adjustable wrist and ankle weights
- Color:
- Black, Blue, Grey, Pink
$23.97
Choose optionsWrap them on and go about your morning. The weight is spread around the ankle or wrist rather than hanging off it, and the silicone is soft enough to wear over a sock. Adjustable, so you are not stuck with one setting.
Why this one: Straps on at the ankle so ordinary walking becomes the exercise. There is no technique to learn.

Ankle strengthener and balance board
$34.97
A tilting board for the ankle that has never been the same since. Sit down and work it with one foot, or stand on it holding the worktop when you are ready. Wooden base, non-slip top.
Why this one: Ankles are where balance is actually lost, and almost nothing on the market trains them seated.

Balance disc, 13 inch
$33.97
An inflatable cushion that never quite settles. Stand on it to make balance harder, or sit on it and let your middle make small corrections all day. The pump is in the box, so you choose how firm it is.
Why this one: Sit on it and posture trains itself; stand on it later. One object, two stages of balance.
