LSVT BIG is a research-based exercise program designed specifically for individuals with Parkinson’s disease and other neurological conditions.

What to expect during LSVT BIGTM therapy:
Individuals with Parkinson’s disease often experience tremors, slowed movement, and other symptoms. During LSVT BIGTM sessions, a physical therapist certified in this method leads patients through highly intensive, repetitive, whole-body, large-motion exercises that “retrain” the brain to make bigger movements. Therapy includes:

• 16 individual sessions (4 sessions per week for 4 weeks)
• assigned daily homework

Parkinson’s disease can take away the ability to move the way you want, research shows LSVT BIGTM therapy results in:

• Faster walking with bigger steps
• Improved balance
• Increased trunk rotation
