Tai Chi and Fall Reductions in Older Adults: A Randomized Controlled Trial. At the end of the 6-month intervention, significantly fewer falls, lower proportions of fallers, and fewer injurious falls were observed in the Tai Chi group compared with the stretching control group. After adjusting for baseline covariates, the risk for multiple falls in the Tai Chi group was 55% lower than that of the stretching control group (risk ratio, .45; 95% confidence interval, 0.30 to 0.70).1 Download this how to video to use on your mobile device!
