How does standing on one leg connect to brain health and longevity? In this episode of Brain Bytes, Kelly Tremblay talks with physical therapist Karen Stellick about the important relationship between balance, neurological health, mobility, and fall prevention.

This episode also examines how to train and improve balance, the connection between neuropathy and balance, and why maintaining balance is an important part of healthy aging.
