Balance
Question: “Why do I have such poor balance"?
Dr. Bruno’s Response: When you rule out neurological problems causing impaired equilibrium, my simple answer is "look for hip muscle weakness". But, it's more than just hip muscles that keep you balanced. The core muscles - hips, pelvis, low back and stomach - work together in concert, which leads to better balance and stability.
So if you have your balance evaluated by a rehabilitation doctor or physical therapist, make sure that all of your muscles - including core muscles - are included in the manual muscle testing.
