The invention

Why a platform

The platform turns balance work into a standard: the same assessment, the same progression, for every athlete, patient or older adult.

Standardises proprioceptive assessment
Structures neuromuscular progression
Activates foot biomechanics
Enhances full-body stability under controlled, progressive conditions

The models

Four platforms

Brick

Rectangular board

A long wooden board with a recess for a roller and a ball. Stand on it over the roller or the ball for a rolling, unstable base; the two halves stack into one block.

The Brick platform: wooden board with a roller and a ball in its recess, a second board standing behind it

Brick: technical drawing with dimensions — Technical drawing

Brick: in use under a bare foot — In use

Square · Gen 1

Square pads

Two square wooden pads; a wooden dome under the pad turns a flat surface into a point of balance under the foot.

The Square Gen 1 platform: a square wooden pad with a dome, a second pad with a round hole standing behind it

Square · Gen 1: in use under a bare foot — In use

Square · Gen 2

Hinged pair with a strap

Two pads joined by a strap: one with a round cup, one with a cross-shaped ridge. Each pad tilts up to 15°, and the pair folds for carrying.

The Square Gen 2 platform: two wooden pads joined by a leather strap, one with a round cup and one with a cross ridge

Balance Rail

Wooden beam on two supports

A round wooden rail, 60 mm across, resting on two solid-wood supports with a non-slip base. Walk along it barefoot, step by step, for balance along one line.

Balance Rail: in use, walking barefoot along the rail — In use

How it works

From the foot up

Assess
A standardised proprioceptive assessment gives the starting point.
Activate
The platform activates the biomechanics of the foot — the body’s first contact with the ground.
Progress
Work moves through the SST phases: floor, instability, asymmetry, external stimuli.
Apply
Rehabilitation and injury prevention in sport, in clinics, sports academies and elder care.
