The Beginnings
G-WEG grew out of practical work with older adults and patients with neurological conditions. Through this work, it became clear how much a lack of mobility leads to insecurity and dependence—and how much targeted exercise can make a difference. The first rehabilitation exercise groups laid the foundation for this more than 16 years ago.
The realization th
e exercise maintains mobility, prevents falls, and ensures independence. At the same time, it became clear that many people start too late. This led to the idea of beginning prevention earlier—the foundation of G-WEG Fall Prevention.
G-WEG Today
Today, G-WEG is in use throughout Germany, as well as in Austria, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, and Norway. Together with our partners, we are continuously developing our system—to provide greater safety, independence, and quality of life for seniors.
