The invention relates to a method and apparatus for providing feedback to a user, in particular relating to the fall risk of the user and/or relating to advice to reduce the fall risk of the user. According to an embodiment, there is provided an apparatus for providing feedback to a user, the apparatus comprising a user interface for providing feedback to the user; and a processing unit. The processing unit is configured to obtain measurements of the fall risk of the user over a time period, the time period comprising at least one time portion in which the fall risk of the user increases to a first threshold value while moving, the user rests for a resting period when the fall risk reaches the first threshold value, and the user subsequently resumes moving; analyse the measurements of the fall risk of the user to determine the duration of each resting period and the fall risk of the user at the end of each resting period when the user subsequently resumes moving; determine a fall risk recovery profile for the user from the duration of each resting period and the fall risk of the user at the end of each resting period; determine the duration of a resting period required for the fall risk of the user to decrease to a second threshold value using the fall risk recovery profile; and provide feedback to the user on the determined duration via the user interface.
