A combination of visual somatosensory & vestibular which comprises balance
Anytime you see the words proprioceptive enriched environment =>
Always choose Stabilization Endurance / Phase 1
Regression and Progressions

Stabilization Balance exercise (no spinal movement)*
= Balance reach
Strength exercise (slight spinal movement) *
= Single leg squat
Power Exercise (spinal movement) *
= Side Jumps
the most advanced balance progression
Bosu Ball
Vestibular System
Provides information about the position of the body and head, and spatial orientation relative to its surrounding environment; located in the inner ears that assist with balance.
Single Leg Scaption (Shoulder exercise)
Performing shoulder exercises in the scapular plane, with arms out at a 45-degree angle, decreases the risk of the supraspinatus muscle becoming impinged within the shoulder. If standing on one leg is too difficult, regress this exercise to a bilateral stance.
Balance is an example of _______________ and ______________.
Dynamic & neuromuscular efficiency
