Presence St Mary's Hospital issued the following announcement on Oct. 4.
“St. Mary’s LSVT BIG Therapy Program has changed how I live with Parkinson’s for the better. It would be a shame for anyone that has Parkinson’s Disease to miss out on this valuable therapy program. This is a must do program!” - Nancy Stevenson – LSVT BIG Therapy Program participant.
LSVT BIG is an exercise program that is based on the principle that the brain can learn and change. It is an intensive, amplitude (trunk rotation/gait) focused physical and occupational therapy approach developed to address the unique movement impairments for people with Parkinson’s Disease.
At Presence St. Mary’s Outpatient Rehabilitation Clinic, our certified therapists offeryou an individualized treatment plan of care and a progressive exercise regimen tailored to fit your Parkinson’s conditions and needs.
