“…Interventions with high exercise volumes [33,52] were reasonably successful, but cited poor adherence as a barrier to further success. The OEP involves approximately half the volume of exercise of that prescribed by Shumway-Cook et al [52] and is successful in both preventing falls and gaining adherence [57]. Thus, while no definitive total exercise volume can be recommended, it is apparent that exercise programmes must meet certain minimum requirements while remaining acceptable to participants to be effective.…”

“…Various studies have proved that, exercise interventions that are delivered either by a physical therapist [4][5][6][7][8][9] or by a trained individual supervised by a physical therapist [10,11] may be one of the most effective interventions to prevent falls. The role of therapists in these interventions was to lead structured, progressive exercise programs over a period of 3 to 12 months.…”

“…The outcomes include improvements in physical performance measures and significant reductions in fall rates. Many of these researchers found significant change in balance strategies which was attributed to improved strength, balance, proprioception, reaction responses and stamina [6,7,9,10].…”
