At Redcore Physical Therapy, we are committed to providing cutting-edge rehabilitation techniques that improve the quality of life for our patients. One of the most effective programs we offer for individuals with Parkinson’s disease and other movement disorders is LSVT BIG. This specialized therapy helps patients regain control of their movements, enhancing their mobility, balance, and confidence in daily activities.
What is LSVT BIG?
LSVT BIG (Lee Silverman Voice Treatment BIG) is an evidence-based physical therapy program designed to help people with Parkinson’s disease improve their motor function. Developed from LSVT LOUD (a speech therapy technique for Parkinson’s), LSVT BIG focuses on amplifying movement to counteract the slow and small motions characteristic of the disease.
How Does LSVT BIG Work?
The program consists of intensive, high-amplitude exercises that target the entire body, helping patients:
✔ Increase movement size and speed
✔ Improve balance and coordination
✔ Reduce the risk of falls
✔ Enhance overall mobility for everyday tasks
A standard LSVT BIG program includes:
🔹 4 sessions per week for 4 weeks (16 sessions total)
🔹 1-hour one-on-one sessions with a certified therapist
🔹 Daily home exercises to reinforce training
Who Can Benefit from LSVT BIG?
While LSVT BIG is primarily designed for individuals with Parkinson’s disease, it is also beneficial for people with other neurological conditions affecting movement, such as:
✅ Stroke survivors
✅ Multiple sclerosis (MS)
✅ Atypical parkinsonism
The key is early intervention—the sooner therapy begins, the greater the potential for long-term mobility improvement.
