Why I Created Steady Stride
My name is Dr. Mark Zander. I'm a physical therapist and I've spent 15 years working with seniors with balance issues.
And I want to be honest with you.
The system I worked in was not built to fix this problem.
People would come in after a fall. Scared. Shaken. We'd work together and something would shift. Confidence back. Moving better. No shuffling anymore.
Then their sessions would run out.
Insurance stopped covering it. Too expensive to continue. So they'd stop.
A few months later they were back where they started. Holding onto things just to get through the day. Shuffling instead of walking because it felt safer.
I watched this happen over and over again.
So I asked myself one question.
What if they could keep training at home. Every day. Without needing me in the room.
That's why I created Steady Stride.
