Balance is a person’s ability to stand upright or maintain a center of gravity without swaying to the left or right. If a person has good balance he can accomplish the movements of sitting, standing, walking, and reaching safely. The Berg Balance Scale was developed in the early part of the 1990s as a tool for measuring balance in the aged population. It is considered a safe, dependable, and effective way to assess a person’s balance.
