Parkinson’s Rehabilitation
LSVT BIG is a program designed specifically to treat patients with Parkinson’s disease or Parkinson-like symptoms. The program trains patients to move their body more normally, as they typically develop smaller, slower movements. This can affect their ability to walk and perform daily activities, such as getting up from a chair or buttoning a shirt. Treatment is focused on retraining how patients perceive their movements, using extra effort to perform bigger movements, in order to perform activities more safely and efficiently.
