A Low-Profile Foam Beam That Folds Away for Storage
The Skil-Care Balance Stability Foam Beam is a long, narrow foam beam designed for balance training and rehabilitation exercises. Walking heel-to-toe, side-stepping or standing on the 4-inch-wide surface adds a gentle challenge, since the foam gives slightly underfoot. At only 1.5 inches tall, it stays close to the floor, making it a practical choice for seniors, people working through a rehab program, and anyone practicing balance skills at home, in a clinic or in a classroom.
The beam is made of closed-cell foam with a wipe-clean vinyl cover, so it is easy to clean between users. It measures 68 inches long and folds in half to 34 inches for storage or transport. Construction is latex-free.

Product Specialist Insight: A foam beam sits between floor work and a raised beam: it is narrow enough to make balance exercises meaningful but low enough that a misstep simply lands on the floor. Place it on a flat, non-slippery surface with clear space on both sides, and start with simple exercises such as walking forward with a hand on a wall or counter for support before progressing to heel-to-toe walking or side steps. Anyone with a fall risk should use it with a therapist, caregiver or spotter nearby, and a physical therapist can suggest exercises suited to the user’s goals.
