Depending on the complexity of your condition, it may take up to 8 sessions to fix.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a high-effort, intensive exercise-base therapy that uses a single amplitude (bigger movements), and teaches the amount of effort required to produce normal movements.\u00a0 It translates the bigger movement to produce normal everyday activities.\u00a0 It teaches individuals with PD and other neurological conditions to use the bigger movements anywhere, anytime in daily living.<\/p>\n<p>In case you were wondering, it\u2019s all-natural. No drugs. No injections. No surgery involved.<\/p>\n<p>This discovery has led to a dramatic increase in how fast my patients got better. They were able to walk with confidence.\u00a0 They were able to sleep, perform daily activities again. They were able to play sports, work and live their life again!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Not all treatments are the same.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Not all traditional balance treatment and fall prevention treatments lead to a better posture and balance (not by any means).
