"ActiveStep, from medical-device maker Simbex, was created from research at the University of Illinois-Chicago. The theory is that users will improve their reflexes and figure out how to catch themselves while on the machine, and those intuitive strategies will carry over to daily life. Preliminary research shows that fall risk declined by 50 percent for up to a year after the treadmill training."
