Event Description

Join us and Physical Therapist Dr. Lauren Heinen of Heinen Physical Therapy to learn about keeping your body healthy and mobile as you age. This series of talks will cover Posture and Performance, Back Pain and Sciatica, Shoulder Health, and Falls and Balance. Each lecture has information on common causes of injury in the respective categories and things that people can do to prevent these injuries from occurring. We will talk about proper body mechanics, exercises to improve stabilizing and supporting muscles and a basic review of anatomy and the parts of the body systems that are involved. The age group is anywhere from 20s to geriatric (working professionals, weekend warriors, older adults and their caretakers).
