| Every hour of every day an older adult dies from fall related injuries, according to the National Council On Aging.
However, there is one senior citizen who is not going to sit there and accept that falling is just part of the aging process. This 76 year-old woman has written a book aimed at educating older adults regarding ways to prevent falls or at least lessen their impact when and if they do occur.
Betty Perkins-Carpenter, who has made a lifelong career of teaching people how to be physically fit, has recently released a new edition of her book, "How To Prevent Falls," which features a series of movements and fun simple exercises that can improve balance."
Taken from, In Good Health newspaper Feb. 2007

About This Important Book
By Dr. Betty Perkins-Carpenter
|
|
|
"This imaginative and easy-to-follow approach to improving one's balance and preventing falls can be of much value to you, your family, and to any older person."
T. Frank Willams, M.D., Former Director of The National Institute on Aging
"This book is an informative and immensely practical guide for seniors to achieve better balance through fitness. Realistic goals of exercise are repeatedly stressed throughout the text. There is no claim here of developing senior Olympians, but rather an exercise program designed to avoid falls as well as an emphasis on the strong, positive social concequences of self-confidence induced by balance exercise."
William J. Hall, M.D., Director of the Center for Healthy Aging, University of Rochester
"Betty Perkins-Carpenter has come up with a great little book, filled with balancing exercises specifically geared to seniors. This book is different; it won't overwhelm you."
Nan Kathryn Fuchs, Ph.D., Editor, Women's Health Letter
"This is so easy and fun! There's so much I can do again without fear of falling."
Ethel Hall, 96 years young
"You hold in your hands the culmination of a lifetime's work, study and experience. I have had the priviledge to watch the development of the Six-Step Balance System over decades, and can enthusiastically endorse its use. The clarity of language, excellent illustrations and design recommend this excellent presentation to both the professional and non-professional reader. Baby boomers take note! Falls and their consequences are a major public health problem. A significant part of the solution lies in these pages.!"
Martin W. Korn, M.D. FAAOS Emeritus
REVIEW FROM AMAZON
Incredible Woman ... Incredible Book!
Dr. Betty Perkins-Carpenter is an incredible woman. Her life is an extraordinary tapestry of accomplishment and service. And now she has developed this incredible book full of innovative techniques that actually work!
Dr. Perkins-Carpenter's keen intuition and insights are supported by solid research, lending academic and scientific credibility to the every-day, practical aspects of her recommendations. It's unfortunate that whatever we do, even following her expert recommendations, most of us will never be able to keep up with Ms. Betty!
