Abstract

ABSTRACT Objectives: To assess the impact, in terms of static and dynamic balance and biopsychosocial factors, of a community-based physical exercise program in community-dwelling older adults. Methods: A quasi-experimental pretest-postest study in 20 community-dwelling, age 65 and older adults. Participants were evaluated using COOP/ WONCA questionnaire, unipedal stance test and Timed Up and Go test. Intervention program consisted of 16 physical exercise sessions (including strength, mobility, balance and flexibility exercises). Results: Intervention was associated with an improvement in both static and dynamic balance, expressed pain, health self-assessment, and social interaction. Conclusions: Physical exercise community-based interventions might improve balance and several biopsychosocial factors in community-dwelling older adults. This could contribute to decrease caseload in health-care centers and promote healthy aging.
