Before “BIG” I was almost wheelchair bound.

After just a few sessions with the LSVT BIG Program, I noticed a marked improvement in my movements.  Before “BIG” I was almost wheelchair bound. I couldn’t walk more than a few steps without shuffling, causing me to lose my balance.  With LSVT BIG, my gait is almost normal, and I can walk for much longer periods of time with no evident balance issues, no stumbling and with more stamina.  LSVT BIG has also greatly improved my rising and sitting down from a chair.  I can accomplish that in one try now, with no assistance.  My OT Michael Moyer taught me LSVT BIG with great words of encouragement and reminders that “I can do it”. And- I continue to “do it” BIG!  Thanks, Michael and Lauren.
