K-D Balance

K-D Balance is an FDA-cleared app used by trained professionals — including athletic trainers and coaches, physical therapists, nurses, physicians, and other trained professionals .

This app is intended only for users with an existing K-D Balance account.

K-D Balance assesses three balance stances: double stance, right tandem stance and left tandem stance.

To use K-D Balance, an iPhone or iPod touch is secured to the individual during the assessment. A hands-free, wearable device holder may be used to help stabilise the device.

After step-by-step voice guidance for each stance, an objective balance score is automatically derived by detecting the individual's movements using the device's internal accelerometer. Trained professionals can compare an individual's K-D Balance assessments longitudinally.
