For physical therapists
Balance is more than not falling — so measure it.
Balance is rarely measured with the consistency of heart rate or blood pressure. ANVA transforms it from a subjective observation into objective data — using a wearable sensor and intelligent analysis to show not just whether a patient can balance, but how they control it and how much reserve remains.

Observation is valuable. It isn't enough.
Traditional balance assessment relies on what you can see. But observation doesn't always explain why a patient is changing, how much reserve remains available, or what to do about it. Many changes begin long before a fall occurs. ANVA was created to make balance measurable — the same protocol, the same way, every visit.
The ANVA balance framework
Six interconnected domains give a more complete picture of balance than a single score alone.
Balance Capacity
How much balance reserve does the patient have?
The amount of movement a person can tolerate before stability is lost.
Stability Utilization
How much of that reserve are they using?
The percentage of available balance capacity being used during a task.
Continuous Stability Control
How effectively do they control balance?
The quality, consistency, and efficiency of ongoing postural control.
Balance Recovery
What happens when balance is challenged?
The body's ability to recognize instability and restore control.
Balance Adaptability
How well do they respond when conditions change?
The ability to maintain balance under progressively more challenging demands.
Balance Endurance
Can performance be sustained over time?
The ability to maintain stability, control, and efficiency throughout an activity.
Measure, understand, train — in one session
Measure movement
A lightweight wearable sensor captures movement data during a series of balance tasks designed to challenge different aspects of balance.
Analyze performance
ANVA processes thousands of movement data points and evaluates all six balance domains.
Generate insights
Results are organized into clinically meaningful domains that explain not only how a patient performed, but why.
Why ANVA is different
Balance changes over time
Balance is not static — it changes with age, injury, recovery, training, and health. Tracking it across domains makes improvement visible, decline measurable, and recovery trackable.
Beyond pass-or-fail
Did they lose balance? Did they step? Did they complete the test? ANVA looks deeper, examining multiple dimensions of performance for a more complete clinical picture.
From measurement to improvement
Most balance systems stop at assessment. ANVA closes the loop: measure, understand, train, reassess, improve.
