Many people believe that falls are an inevitable part of aging, but that is far from the truth! Falls Prevention Awareness Month is the perfect time to dispel this myth! The key to preventing falls often starts at the ground floor.

September is Falls Prevention Awareness Month! Learn how the Moore Balance Brace from Caring Podiatry can improve stability, reduce falls, and enhance safety.
