I went to my neurologist with a smug "I can balance no problem, look and see ......" and then he said "okay, now close your eyes". I was shocked by how much I was over compensating with my vision and had developed less feet sensation for balancing than I had thought.
Hey v5118lKftfk,
I do stretching exercises outside every morning (to capture morning light {and Wim Hoof cold!}) often on 1 leg and noticed its much easier from the feedback I got from the reflection of myself in my conservatory window. Closing my eyes as you suggested is a whole different ball game. I'd heard of balance boards but never a balance mat and have bought 1 to really train my ankles ( often vulnerable for those with PN) and boost proprioceptive nerve connection/growth. the plan being to to move to a wobble board in time.
Thanks again for these really great posts.
I have to ask, where does your catchy name come from!?
Best wishes,
Atty
