One Fall Can Change
Your Whole Life

Falls are a major cause of hospitalization and death in older adults. Balance is one of the first things to change as we get older – and now, one of the easiest to check.

Check your balance and stay upright.

Hi, I’m Terry Chabrowe, CEO of UpRight Science. After seeing close friends suffer life-altering falls, I ended my retirement to do something about it.

When I learned about a technology that is a scientifically proven, FDA-cleared way to measure balance objectively and accurately, I was immediately interested.

Our original idea was to introduce the FDA-cleared product to physicians, therapists and other healthcare professionals because it requires a prescription for use. And we have already launched to that audience, with the UpRight Science app.

But one night – literally in the middle of the night – I woke up and thought:

What if there were a way for anyone to check their balance—anytime?

Well, now there is. StayUpRight!* is available for Apple and Android.

Think about your balance before the first fall, not after.

Our goal is to make everyone aware of how important balance is, and how much it can tell you about staying active and independent.

If you measure your balance regularly, you will easily see if there are changes in either a positive or negative direction. If the direction is negative, it’s time to consult with your healthcare professional.

We want to reverse a major practice in health and wellness: we want you and your health advisors to think about your balance before that first fall, not after.

In short, for me this is not a job; it’s a mission. And all my colleagues at UpRight feel the same. We want to tell everyone: Check your balance and stay upright.

It will make a world of difference.

It’s easy to do. Here’s how to get started.
