Urban Poling Inc. and LSVT Take Another Step Together to Improve Mobility and Empower Parkinson's Patients

TORONTO, Oct. 18, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- We are proud to better serve our valued partner and friend, LSVT Global, renowned for its innovative LSVT BIG^® therapy program, in our common mission to improve overall mobility and to enrich the lives of the global Parkinson's community by creating an Activatorâ course especially for LSVT BIG Certified Physical and Occupational Therapists!

Parkinson's Disease is a neurological disorder that affects movement and is characterized by symptoms such as tremors, stiffness, slowness of movement and impaired balance which can impact daily living and quality of life. Research shows that exercise plays a pivotal role in helping to manage physical symptoms and in reducing the incidence of depression and anxiety, commonly associated with Parkinson's.

Benefits of Urban Poling Inc.'s Activator® Poles for Parkinson's Patients:

Improved Balance:  The poles promote an upright posture and engage core muscles, helping individuals with PD maintain better balance when walking.

Increased Confidence:  The poles provide stability which instills confidence in individuals with PD and encourages them to engage in physical activity without the fear of falling or losing balance.

A Perfect Pairing! Urban Poling Inc.'s Activator® poles and LSVT's Program

Urban Poling Inc., known for its ergonomically designed walking poles and evidence-based programs, is no stranger to innovation.
