Board for balancing

  • Board for balancing

Balancing boards are an ideal home exercise machine that comprehensively develops children and adults, maintains their health, and takes care of muscle groups and skeleton. In the Ukrainian market, this type of product has become the most popular among gifts over the past few years. This is due to many reasons, which we will discuss in this article.

The main task of the equipment for balance

We stand, walk and perform other actions thanks to the muscular skeleton. Each muscle is connected to bones, ligaments, tendons. Beginning any action, the brain sends a signal through neural connections, and we raise an arm, a leg, we turn a head. That is why training on a balance board is a complex that allows you to develop two aspects of our movement - the brain and muscles. Therefore, balance classes perform the following tasks and benefit:

  • Develops the vestibular apparatus, as well as proprioception - orientation in the position of parts of the body;
  • Strengthens the muscles of the body, especially the back, thereby aligning the spine and posture;
  • Helps to recover from loss of musculoskeletal system;
  • Makes the child confident and strong in spirit;
  • Stimulates the cerebellum and sensory integration.

Scientific view of classes with a balance board

At first glance, it seems that it is very easy to stand on the board. In fact, when you stand on it with your feet, the cerebellum is immediately activated in the cerebral cortex. The cerebellum occupies only one tenth of the gray matter, but half of the neural connections are there. The main task of the cerebellum - coordination, orientation, balance, interaction of the left and right hemispheres. He is also responsible for fine motor skills, develops language, reading, arithmetic.

When a child trains regularly on a balance board, the cerebellum is in constant activity. This improves the transience of social and modeling processes. That is, the child's brain in the future will perceive any information not as new, but as additional to the previously studied model. As he attends school, he will have no problems with peers, teachers, or understanding subjects.

As for sensory integration, the dysfunction of which has become increasingly common in children from 3 to 7 years, the balance board reduces symptoms and helps to quickly bring the nervous system back to normal. This is again due to the effect on the cerebellum, which is responsible for nerve impulses, which in turn are responsible for receptors. Daily exercise will eliminate the signs of hyperactivity, autism, hearing loss, olfactory, anxiety for no reason. Children are encouraged to study the poem while standing on a balance, which speeds up the recovery process.

How does the balance board affect the psyche

From a psychological point of view, a board with a roller makes a person more confident. Like a professional athlete, a child who has mastered the technique of balanceboard, becomes strong, bold and ambitious. She is not afraid of discoveries, new acquaintances, scientific research.

The board teaches to be calm and stubborn. Balance exercises are not given to everyone from the first or even the tenth time. It takes time to master the technique. By jumping and throwing training, no person will be able to learn to balance. You need to focus on your feelings and sensations. This is how the board develops perseverance, calmness and even attentiveness.

Balanceboard makes you fight the fear of flying. Exercises on an unstable instrument subconsciously affect the brain, reproducing the same sensations as during takeoff or landing. Scientists have proven that this phobia is associated with fear of heights, confined space, loneliness. By dispersing it, you will get rid of others.

Types of balancing boards

Manufacturers of balance boards care about the quality, functionality and safety of people who will use the simulators. On a complete set balance boards are conditionally divided into four types:

  • Board with a separate roller. Option for adults and experienced border guards. On a rubber, non-slip roller the board on which it is possible to sit down or stand up is established;
  • Cast board with semicircular ribs in the stand. A good option for children. Unlike the previous version, the roller will not be able to fly out from under the board, which would lead to the fall of the trainee;
  • Balance board with additional elements. For example, the board "Labyrinth". A labyrinth with a metal ball is carved on a wooden ecological board. Trying to roll the ball to the end, the child will train without noticing it.

Pay attention to the execution of the model. The base should be varnished to increase durability and moisture resistance. The roller, if it goes separately, must be rubberized and even. It should not show traces of glue or bumps. The right choice is the key to successful training and rapid development.
