What is LSVT BIG Program?
The LSVT BIG Program (Lee Silverman Voice Treatment) is designed to help “recalibrate” the brain. As Parkinson’s Disease progresses, you may notice movements become slower, smaller, and misdirected. Shuffling and freezing while walking will become more obvious. The BIG program teaches you how and when to make BIG movements to match those around you.
LSVT BIG Treatment consists of:
- 16 one-on-one sessions (4x/week for 4 weeks)
- customized to YOUR specific needs and goals
