Parkinson’s exercise class

Posted

The Birches at Newtown and Fox Rehabilitation bring a research-based exercise approach to treating Parkinson’s disease with Fox Big for Life, a free community program open to the public.

The program takes place Tuesdays in June from noon to 1 p.m. at 70 Durham Road in Newtown.

Ideal for people who have completed the LSVT BIG treatment, which focuses on the limb motor systems, Fox Big for Life is a small exercise group using similar methods and facilitated by an LSVT Big certified therapist. Exercise routines are specific to help manage and improve symptoms of Parkinson’s disease, including posture and balance, range of movement, strength, and endurance.

Class size is limited, and a reservation is required to participate.

To RSVP, please call 215-497-7400.
