Balance trainer
Did you know that without our sense of balance we couldn't even stand upright? The sense of balance is an instinct that we should train regularly. The older we get, the wobblier we are on our feet. Besides classic exercises with your own body weight, there are various balance trainers that work with instability and challenge and train your sense of balance. When training with balance trainers, you stand on an uneven, wobbly surface and your body must balance this existing imbalance. We explain why you should train your balance, for whom balance training is suitable and what positive effects it can have for you. Of course, we would also like to show you a few basic exercises for different balance trainers that you can do comfortably and easily.

BIOSWING® sitting moduleThe seat module for the Posturomed® 202 or Posturomed® compact enables stabilisation exercises in a seated position and is particularly suitable for all patients who cannot stand on the Posturomed®. Reasons for this are, for example, acute traumas in the foot or knee area, operations or signs of old age (geriatrics).Advantages: Particularly suitable for patients who cannot stand Optimal use in orthopaedics after trauma or operations in the foot or knee area, in geriatrics, neurology Safe training and strain on the trunk and abdominal muscles The stool is attached to a disc which has pins on the underside. These pins are inserted into the hole circle of the therapy surface of the Posturomed® and the seat module is thus installed.The stool is height-adjustable and can thus be adjusted to the height of each patient.It is possible to swing on the seat module in the same directions as if the patient were standing on the therapy surface: Extension and flexion of the trunk, laterally, diagonally or in circumduction. This mainly works the trunk muscles and the (oblique) abdominal muscles of the patient.To make the exercises easier, all oscillation circuits of the Posturomed® should be open so that the oscillation amplitudes are greater.Product details: Scope of delivery: 1x seat module Easy to assemble due to plug-in connection Suitable for the Posturomed® 202 (from year of manufacture 2012, bolt circle must be available) and the Posturomed® compact Downloads: User manual
BIOSWING® feedback moduleThe feedback module for the Posturomed® 202 and the Posturomed® compact allows a more precise visual control of the vibrations of the therapy surface. This makes it easier for both the patient and the therapist to check whether certain exercises are being performed correctly or sufficiently.The feedback module consists of three red and three black plates. The black ones are attached to the vibrating surface on the front and both outer sides. The red counterparts are attached directly to the fixed part of the Posturomed® underneath the black plates. The black and red plates must each be installed so that they are exactly on top of each other.When the therapy surface vibrates during an exercise, the black plate also vibrates and you can see the "distance" to the red plate very well. This provides visual feedback on the movement and the direction of oscillation of the surface.The feedback module is useful to check the correct execution of exercises.Product details: Scope of delivery: 3x black plate, 3x red plate. Suitable for the Posturomed® 202 and the Posturomed® compact Note: The black plate is used with the provocation module to attach the oscillating surface in a deflected position.
BIOSWING® Contact ModuleThe contact module is used to apply tactile stimuli and thus optimise the execution of exercises. It is also extremely helpful in combination with the rehabilitation module: When used appropriately, it generates additional resistance that significantly increases the range of exercises with the rehabilitation module.The contact module consists of two components: The two steel sheets are attached to the railing of the Posturomed® 202. The notches allow the rubber bands to be attached. A total of 4 rubber bands in two different lengths can be stretched as desired in and around the Posturomed® railing and attached to the notches of the steel sheets. The contact module offers these possibilities: Tactile feedback: The rubber bands can be used to control the range of movement during exercises. For example, the patient lifts his leg until his foot touches the band. Resistance (especially in connection with the rehabilitation module): If a long rubber band is stretched completely around the railing, it can provide additional resistance during exercises with the rehabilitation module. Example: higher resistance during movements into adduction, abduction, extension or flexion. Hurdle: The rubber bands can be attached at an appropriate height and serve as a hurdle, for example for a big step or a jump onto the swing surface. Product details: Scope of delivery: 2x steel sheets with notches, 2x long yellow rubber band, 2x short yellow rubber band. Optimal training possibilities in combination with the rehabilitation module Suitable for the Posturomed® 202 NOT suitable for the Posturomed® compact
BIOSWING® OSG moduleThe OSG module for the Posturomed® enables demanding exercises that stress both the upper and lower ankle. The sensorimotor stimulating movement impulses of the Posturomed® swing surface are also used outside the horizontal plane.The OSG module is a round plate with a diameter of 32 cm that is attached to the bolt circle of the Posturomed® 202 or Posturomed® compact by means of a plug-in connection.The module has a tilting axis whose angle can be adjusted on the underside. Depending on the setting, the footprint tilts by 7, 10, 15 or 20 degrees.Depending on how the module is aligned, the axis tilts to the right/left, front/rear or diagonally.Depending on the orientation of the module or the patient's foot on the module, the ankle joints can be provoked in their different functional axes for their stabilisation ability. Such exercises place higher demands on the stabilisation of the upper and lower ankle joint and are therefore mainly suitable for advanced practitioners, for well-stabilised patients or for athletes. In addition, the OSG module is used in neuro-orthopaedic rehabilitation and orthopaedics.Advantages: Adds challenging exercises to the training spectrum. Offers another level beyond the horizontal swing surface Individual adjustment of the tilt angle to the individual patient Quick and easy installation via plug-in connection on the bolt circle Important: The adjustment of the tilt angle must always be adapted to the individual conditions of the patient. 7 degrees is the physiological maximum angle for medial and lateral gaping of the OSG. At 10, 15 or 20 degrees, on the other hand, there is a risk of overloading the capsular ligamentous apparatus of the OSG and USG if this is pre-damaged, e.g. after supination trauma.Product details: Scope of delivery: 1x OSG module Diameter of the standing surface: 32 cm Tilt angle of the standing surface varies between 7, 10, 15 and 20 degrees depending on the setting Installation by simple plug-in connection with the pitch circle of the Posturomed®.

BIOSWING® Provocation ModuleThe provocation module is an additional module for BIOSWING® Posturomed® 202 and compact.It enables recurring, exactly reproducible provocations to be administered to the patient.First, the provocation module itself is used to set whether the therapy surface is to be deflected by 10, 20 or 30 millimetres. Then the module is attached to the outside of the Posturomed®.In addition, both latches of the Posturomed® should be open so that the therapy surface can deflect by the corresponding 10, 20 or 30 mm.By means of the provocation module, the therapy surface is now deflected ("pushed to the side") and locked, i.e. "fixed". While the patient now stands on the therapy surface and, if necessary, performs a given exercise, the therapist can simply step on the outer part of the additional module. The therapy surface swings back to its starting or standard position in the middle and thus triggers a provocation. The patient has to compensate or stabilise this impulse.Depending on the patient's position on the therapy surface, the direction of the provocation also changes: For example, the muscles primarily used can be adductors, abductors, hip extensors or hip flexors.The advantage of the provocation module: The provocation impulses can always be reproduced exactly and the patient's reactions can be compared.Product details: Scope of delivery: 1x provocation module Deflection of the therapy area by 10, 20 or 30 mm Suitable for BIOSWING® Posturomed® 202 and BIOSWING® Posturomed® compact Note: If you also purchase a feedback module for your Posturomed®, only the red and black rocker switch is supplied. The black counterpart is then already included in the delivery of the feedback module. Downloads: User manual
BIOSWING® Posturomed® compactThe BIOSWING® Posturomed® compact is the "little brother" of the BIOSWING® Posturomed® 202 and is suitable for the same exercises to improve coordination and stability.The BIOSWING® Posturomed® by HAIDER® is a sensorimotor device for prevention, therapy and diagnosis. The therapy surface, also called the "swinging surface", is suspended on a double swinging mechanism. This enables dosed, damped pendulum movements. The oscillation amplitudes can be set differently.Through the dosed provocation of motor control and regulation from the somato-sensory system in a closed movement chain on the BIOSWING® Posturomed®, an optimal quality of postural actions and reactions can be worked out. This activation of segmental, sectoral and polysegmental coordination serves to stabilise the weight-bearing joints and the spine. A stable sensorimotor system forms the basis of a pain-free and efficient movement system.When should I choose the BIOSWING® Posturomed® compact?The compact version of the BIOSWING® Posturomed® is particularly suitable when space conditions do not allow the stationary BIOSWING® Posturomed® 202 to be set up. With its therapy area of 40 x 40 cm, the BIOSWING® Posturomed® compact takes up less space. In addition, it can be folded up quickly and easily and put to one side. If it is needed, it can be set up quickly in just a few steps and is ready for use.The BIOSWING® Posturomed® compact is also suitable for anyone who wants to use it in different places. Whether in different wards in the clinic or therapy centre, or even on the road: this Posturomed® is easy to transport and fits in any car boot.The advantages of the BIOSWING® Posturomed® compact: Takes up less space Can be quickly folded up and put away Is perfect for mobile use as it can be easily transported Tip:If you have enough space for the BIOSWING® Posturomed® 202 and do not need it for mobile use, then we always recommend the BIOSWING® Posturomed® 202. With its larger therapy surface, it opens up more varied exercise options for you. It also has a 3-sided handrail (in contrast to the 1-sided handrail on the BIOSWING® Posturomed® compact), which ensures more safety for the patient. Furthermore, more additional modules can be attached than with the compact version.Differences to the BIOSWING® Posturomed® 202: Smaller therapy area: 40 x 40 cm instead of 60 x 60 cm Handrail on one side instead of 3 sides Lower weight: 27 kg instead of 42 kg Handrail can be folded in When folded, the BIOSWING® Posturomed® compact can be easily transported using the carrying handle and castors. Note:As the BIOSWING® Posturomed® compact and therefore also the therapy surface is smaller and lighter, the oscillation frequency is also slightly higher than with the BIOSWING® Posturomed® 202, resulting in a slightly more demanding situation for the patient.Product details: Therapy surface / swinging surface: 40 x 40 cm Weight: 27 kg Foldable support railing on one side Suitable for stationary and mobile use Class 1 medical device Certified according to MDR 2017/745 Downloads: BIOSWING® Posturomed® user manual
The BIOSWING® Step Mat PKT is an accessory for the Posturomed 202. The step mat, which can be securely locked in place in front of the Posturomed 202 with a steel rail, is used for standardised performance of the "PosturoCybernetics Test". In addition, this disinfectable plastic mat is also used in therapy with the Posturomed for all exercises that have their starting position in front of the Posturomed. For example, "step-up exercises" can be performed with a recurring, reproducible step length. Markings and body sizes are printed on the mat to help the exerciser position himself optimally on the BIOSWING® Posturomed 202. Training successes and training progress can be displayed and measured.
The BIOSWING® rehabilitation module is an accessory for the BIOSWING® Posturomed 202. It is used for directional stabilisation exercises on the Posturomed 202. With the rehabilitation module, which can only be connected to the Posturomed® 202, pelvic, knee joint and ankle joint stabilisation exercises can be carried out in a closed kinetic chain in higher frequency muscle synergism. Due to the possible partial relief of the lower extremities, the rehabilitation module can be used in an early rehabilitation phase. Once the rehabilitation module is mounted, it can be easily and simply attached to the Posturomed with the plug-in system. While the patient stands with one leg stable on the fixed element above the therapy surface (fixed point), the other leg stands unstable on the mobile element (mobile point), which is securely locked on the swinging therapy surface of the Posturomed®. With the help of the intervention traction or a cable traction device, the patient can additionally work against a resistance. For optimal use of the rehabilitation module, visual feedback on compliance with the directions of movement specified by the therapist is required: either via the feedback module (mechanical) or via MicroSwing measuring system (electronic).
The Posturomed® 202 is the neuro-orthopaedic diagnostic, prevention and therapy device with a dosed damped unstable surface. This therapy surface is attached to special oscillating elements which allow dosed damped evasive movements in a certain frequency range and with differently adjustable vibration amplitudes. Due to the dosed increase of the proprioceptive, vestibular and optical afferences on the Posturomed® an optimal quality of postural actions and reactions can be worked out. This individually dosed Activation of the segmental, sectoral and polysegmental coordination serves the optimal stabilization of the supporting joints and the spinal column. A stable postural system forms the Basis of a painless and efficient movement system, especially for long lasting monotonous activities. The crosshairs located on the 60 x 60 cm therapy area with Circle centring enables the user to visually orientate himself during training. This identification enables standardised test procedures such as the PosturoKybernetikTest PKT. The enclosed intervention train enables on the one hand the manual calming of the therapy area by the therapist, on the other hand the targeted deflection of the therapy area for a reactive training. The Posturomed® 202 can be supplemented by numerous additional modules, which significantly expands its already large spectrum of indications. Approved as a medical device in the class 1.

For whom is balance training appropriate?
Balance training is the optimal complement for all sports to improve performance and be more agile. Whether you are young or old, a professional or amateur athlete, balance training is for everyone. Working one's balance can help you improve your discipline or counteract weaknesses. It is also a useful supplement for anyone who wants to challenge themselves or for those who want to improve their performance and protect themselves from injury. Even people who are not active in sports can benefit from training with balance trainers.
What are the benefits of practicing your balance with balance trainers?
There are many good reasons why you too should start balance training. When you regularly challenge your body on a wobbly surface, you not only stabilize the muscles, but you can enjoy other positive effects.
Here is an overview of the main benefits:
- Stabilization of the joints
- Improved nerve-muscle coordination
- Compensation of muscular imbalances and tensions
- Improvement of posture
- Prevention of back pain
- Strengthening of the spine and deep muscles
- Improvement of the own body feeling
- Minimize the risk of injury in sports and everyday life
Balance training can help you strengthen your sense of balance, strengthen deep muscles, and work on fine motor skills. When you enhance the interplay between your body and mind, it can lead to you performing better in sports as well, and even small everyday tasks can suddenly feel easier.
Which balance trainers are available?
There are many ways to improve your balance with balance trainers. Whether you are looking for balance cushions, balance boards or balance pads for your training, at K-Active we offer you a wide range of balance trainers of the well-known brands TOGU®, MFT® Bodyteamwork, Airex® and HAIDER®. Depending on your personal goals and abilities, you can use the balance trainers not only to train your sense of balance, but also to promote your cardiovascular system and strengthen your muscles. You can perform static or dynamic exercises to improve your performance, body control and posture.
Balance cushion
Balance cushions are space-saving and handy balance trainers that can be used effectively in the office or in everyday life. They are usually flat, filled with air and made of a special foam with a smooth or nubby surface. Balance cushions are universally applicable and offer you a variety of exercise and application possibilities. Whether standing, sitting, lying or kneeling - your musculature is stressed and strengthened in every position. With balance cushions you can train the deep muscles and thus complete even more intensive training sessions.
Balance Boards
Nowadays, balance boards come in a wide variety of designs: from classic to electronic. No matter what kind of balance board you are looking for, all of them are ideal for functional training with an additional fun factor. You can not only improve your coordination with the balance board, but also strengthen your stability, especially in the legs. This effectively mobilizes the ankle and knee joints and makes it easier to cushion future falls.
Balance Pads
Training with balance pads can improve your conditioning and coordination skills as well as strength, endurance, differentiation, and balance. Balance pads are optimal for improving your coordination, training your sense of balance, and getting your body in shape. In addition, they are very durable and long-lasting. Balance pads are usually made of a soft foam on which you can easily do stretching, strength or balance exercises. Because of the yielding material, your body is automatically forced to balance and stabilize the joints.
Why you should train your balance
With the help of balance training, you can not only train your body, but also challenge yourself mentally. This is where the cooperation between the brain and the muscles is particularly important. With balance training you can effectively improve your neuromuscular coordination. It helps your body respond more quickly to signals from the brain and improves your fine motor and coordination skills. If you have good balance, you can, among other things, increase your performance in sports, improve your body maintenance and even reduce your susceptibility to falls. The latter is especially important for older people, as they have a poor sense of balance and are particularly susceptible to falls.
What you should keep in mind during balance training
Balance training also involves a risk of injury. Therefore, it is important to make sure that you perform each exercise in a way that you feel safe. In the beginning, you can also use a wall or chair as a support for safety. When you feel ready for a workout without support, you can of course eliminate it. The most important prerequisite for effective balance training is that you are focused. Because only if you don't lose focus, you can keep your balance and stay centered. Have a little patience and don't give up if you don't get it right the first time. Practice makes perfect!
