I was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease in March 2021. My neurologist referred me to a movement specialist who prescribed the LSVT Big Program. I was so happy to learn that BSR had Haley Stack, a certified "Big" therapist, on staff. I worked with Haley four sessions per week for 4 weeks. Prior to the program I was having trouble lifting my arms shoulder height to blow dry my hair, trouble with buttons, trouble signing my name that could be seen with the naked eye, spells of vertigo and an abnormal gait.
Since completing my sessions with Haley I regularly perform my "Big" exercises. I can now blow dry my hair, button shirts, and legibly sign my name. My vertigo and gait have improved quite a bit. I am not 100% my pre-Parkinson's old self but greatly improved. I highly recommend the "Big Program" and the competency of Haley Stack at BSR. read more
