Individuals with early stage Parkinson disease (PD) or young onset PD may not yet be exhibiting many physical characteristics of PD. However, a regular exercise regime and intensive physical and occupational therapy  (LSVT BIG) can still be appropriate and beneficial. Join LSVT BIG Faculty for a discussion on how exercise and the LSVT BIG intensive protocol can help maintain current levels of functioning, uncover subtle movement challenges, and improve movement while potentially slowing symptom progression.

Individuals with early stage Parkinson disease (PD) or young onset PD may only be exhibiting mild or subtle vocal characteristics of PD. However, intensive behavioral treatment for voice and speech (LSVT LOUD) can still be appropriate, justifiable and beneficial for these populations. Join LSVT LOUD Faculty for a discussion on the benefits of LSVT LOUD®

Discover recent research and clinical advances related to intensive behavioral treatment for vocal loudness (LSVT LOUD) and body movement (LSVT BIG). The webinar will include a brief review on the early research behind the development of these programs followed by an overview of the current body of research and clinical work in these areas.
