Parkinson’s Disease and LSVT

Rebecca is a certified LSVT BIG clinician.
LSVT BIG is an exercise programme designed for people with Parkinson’s Disease. It trains people with Parkinson disease (PD) to move their body more ‘normally’. People living with PD or other neurological conditions often move differently, with gestures and actions that become smaller and slower. They may have trouble with getting around, getting dressed and with other activities of daily living. LSVT BIG effectively trains improved movements for any activity, whether “small motor” tasks like buttoning a shirt or “large motor” tasks like getting up from a sofa/chair or maintaining balance while walking.
It is an intensive programme consisting of very frequent visits over a 4 week period with daily exercises and tasks to complete. It is an evidence-based programme which is customised to individual goals. It can be used at any stage of the disease but has most successful results in the early to mid stages.

I am so passionate about this programme and inspired by the improvements that can be seen.
