Product Information
Full details
The AIREX Elite Balance Pad is a professional-grade stability trainer designed for physical therapists, athletes, and individuals undergoing rehabilitation to improve coordination, joint stability, and core strength. By utilizing high-density, destabilizing foam, it forces the body to engage deep stabilizer muscles during routine movements, though its 6cm thickness requires users to maintain focus on form to prevent overexertion during initial use.

FAQs
Can I use the AIREX Balance Pad with shoes?
While the pad is designed to stimulate foot receptors during barefoot training, it can be used with shoes, though the non-slip texture is most effective against bare skin or socks.
Is this pad suitable for children?
Yes, it is excellent for children's motor skill development, provided they are supervised to ensure safe usage.
How do I sanitize the pad?
Thanks to its closed-cell foam and antimicrobial treatment, a simple wipe-down with water and mild soap is sufficient.
Can the pad be used outdoors?
It is designed for indoor clinical or home use; outdoor use on rough terrain may cause premature wear or damage to the foam.
Will the foam lose its shape over time?
The AIREX Elite is made of high-density material designed to retain its shape and support properties even with frequent use.
What is the primary benefit of the waffle texture?
The texture provides better grip and actively stimulates the nerves in the feet to enhance sensory feedback during balance training.
Troubleshooting
Pad feels too slippery on hardwood floors
Place the AIREX Elite Balance Pad on top of a standard yoga or exercise mat to increase total surface friction.
Surface feels slightly dusty or greasy
Wipe the pad down with a cloth soaked in mild soapy water and let it air dry completely.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the AIREX Elite Balance Pad is simple: place it on a flat, non-slip surface. For maximum stability and longevity, we recommend placing an AIREX mat underneath the pad if you are working on slippery flooring or performing exercises that involve lying down.
To clean, simply use a soft brush or a cloth with warm, soapy water. Because the material is closed-cell, it will not absorb water, making it quick to dry. Avoid using aggressive cleaning chemicals or sharp objects, as these can damage the foam structure and compromise the non-slip texture.
