About
The physiotherapist behind the mat.
Anna Stackpool is an aged care physiotherapist based in Sydney. Much of her work is centred on helping older adults stay strong, steady and independent, and supporting them to regain these abilities following surgery, illness, injury or other health interventions.
"Falls are not an inevitable part of ageing. They are largely preventable — and the right exercises, done consistently and correctly, make an enormous difference. That's what the SAS Mat is about."

ANNA’S STORY
Why she created the SAS Mat
After years of assessing balance and prescribing balance exercises to her aged care clients, Anna noticed a recurring problem — foot placement was difficult to standardise when testing, and clients could not always replicate accurate technique at home without supervision. Small errors in foot position and movement direction meant the wrong muscles were being targeted. The SAS Mat was her solution: a visual guide that makes correct technique impossible to get wrong.
