The LSVT BIG Program
This is a well-researched program that has been helping individuals with Parksinson’s increase walking speed, improve balance and enhance independence with everyday tasks. It works to “recalibrate” the system in our body that is affected by Parkinson’s. It’s a program that takes some commitment, but we stand by the results! This is a standardized treatment protocol, which is customized to the unique goals of each patient including both gross and fine motor skills.

LSVT BIG treatment consists of:

  1. 16 sessions: 4 consecutive days a week for 4 weeks
  2. Individual 1 hour sessions
  3. Daily homework practice
  4. Daily carryover exercises

Acupuncture in Huntsville, AL

by November 10, 2022

Acupuncture in Huntsville, AL

Acupuncture is a form of Oriental Medicine originating from China over 2000 years ago. It involves the evaluation and treatment of 12 pathways called ‘Meridians’. Each meridian contains multiple points relating to different body systems and organs. Acupuncture stimulates these points promoting healing. Stimulation is done through using small, sterilized acupuncture needles, or through manual Acupressure.

Diagnosing through Oriental Medicine is quite different from Western Medicine. Acupuncturists pay attention to signs and symptoms that other practitioners may not incorporate. While basic anatomy is identical, we learn to evaluate meridians, pulses, and to observe the tongue, face, nails and skin. This information allows development of ‘patterns’ that lead to diagnosis.

Acupuncture Services include:

  • Acupuncture
  • Acupressure
  • Massage
  • Cupping
  • Qi-Gong
  • Moxibustion

Physical Therapy is more than just exercise! PT requires intense training in anatomy, neurology, physiology, kinesiology, and neuro-movement patterns. A Physical Therapist integrates this training to help patients recover from injury and illness by assessing body systems and musculoskeletal movements.
