Find Your Balance with Biodex
Have you recently injured or undergone surgery in your lower extremities (hips, legs, knees, ankles, and feet)? Are you an older adult concerned about your fall risk? The new advanced Biodex Balance System (BBS) is a state-of-the-art tool that can help maximize your physical therapy, and Recovery Physical Therapy has one in our Upper West Side, Fashion District, NoMad, and Larchmont clinics!
The BBS provides valuable information about balance impairments and fall risk. The information we glean from the test provides us with a baseline to design your fall prevention, surgical rehabilitation, or sports performance program.
With easy-to-read charts and color graphic reports, you’ll better understand your lower body’s strengths and weaknesses–information you can share with your surgeon, doctor, insurance provider, or employer. Plus, it makes it easier to see your progress and stick to your rehab plan.

How the Biodex Helps Improve Balance
The BBS uses a small platform to assess your balance in both a dynamic (moving) and static (unmoving) environment. We’ll then use the information gathered in these assessments to create a customized balance training program, no matter your specific needs.
However, the system doesn’t just perform assessments. It offers several effective tools to challenge your balance, gait, and more. We might use it to help you improve the following:
- Proprioception (your body’s awareness of itself in space)
- Overall stability
- Ability to shift weight
- Range of motion
The system provides real-time feedback, allowing you to see progress and improvement as you work through your program.
