LSVT therapy helping some Parkinson's patients
WEST BOYNTON — Sit down. Stand up. Reach up. Reach down. Take big steps. A new physical therapy program for Parkinson's disease patients is retraining their brains and bodies to make the expansive movements many have lost because of tremors, stiffness and muscle atrophy. The treatment emphasizes big, repetitive motions and operatic voice exercises to help patients speak louder, correct their posture and walk with agility instead of taking baby steps. |
