falls prevention
for life
Most falls-risk advice is a guess.
We measure it.
Using the same VALD technology professional sports teams use,
we build a clear picture of your strength and balance
— then a real plan to stay independent.
Why measure, not guess
Most falls-prevention advice amounts to 'be careful' — with nothing to say why, or what's actually changed in your strength and balance.
We do it differently.
Using VALD ForceDecks, we measure leg strength, side-to-side asymmetries, and balance under load — the same technology used by professional sports teams. That gives us a real, objective starting point, and a way to track whether the plan is actually working.
What we assess
Leg strength
— and whether one side is meaningfully weaker than the other
Balance and stability
— how well you control your weight when it shifts unexpectedly
Falls risk score
— an objective number, not a guess, based on your actual results
Movement quality
— how you get up from a chair, walk, and change direction
Bone and joint history
— past fractures, surgeries, or conditions that affect your plan
How the programme works
Assess
— A full VALD-powered assessment of your strength, balance, and falls risk — about 60 minutes, no guesswork involved.
Build a plan
— A strength and balance programme built around your actual results, not a generic seniors' exercise sheet.
Stay independent
— Regular check-ins to track progress and adjust the plan as your strength improves.
Who it's for
Anyone 50+ who wants to stay strong, active, and independent — not just "manage decline"
Anyone who's had a fall, or a near-fall,
and wants to understand why
Adult children helping a senior parent
who's been told to "be careful"
with no real plan behind it
Anyone returning to activity after a hip, knee, or other lower-body surgery
The Action Plan
AgeStrong is a specialised wellness programme, so ACC doesn't apply here
— pricing reflects the VALD assessment and ongoing personalised plan.
The Consult
$150
60-minute consult with testings + Full Report
Start here if you just want a clear, honest picture of where you're at. A full assessment using VALD ForceDecks and DynaMo, followed by a written report covering your strength, balance, and movement findings — something you can actually keep and refer back to, not just a verbal summary you'll forget by the time you get home.
The Essentials
$250
60-minute consult with testings + Full Report
+ 6-week training/rehab plan
For anyone who wants the full picture and a plan to act on it. Includes everything in The Consult, plus a 6-week training programme built specifically around your results — not a generic template, but a plan that targets exactly what the assessment found.
The Full Ride
$400
60-minute consult with testings + Full Report
+ 2x 6-week training/rehab plan
+ Halfway check-in session
The complete package for anyone serious about real, tracked progress. Two consecutive 6-week training plans (12 weeks of structured programming) plus a check-in session at the halfway point to review what's working, adjust what isn't, and make sure the second block builds properly on the first. This is the option for someone training toward a real goal, not just curious about their numbers.
Strong today,
strong tomorrow.
