Balance and Fall Prevention: Why It Matters

Maintaining balance is essential for reducing fall risk, especially for individuals living with arthritis or Parkinson's disease. These conditions can affect joint mobility, muscle strength, posture, and coordination, making everyday movements more challenging. When vestibular disorders are present - issues with the inner ear that contribute to balance - the risk of falls can increase significantly.

Please join us and Kasey McKanna for an informative evening to better understand these challenges and learn practical strategies to stay safe, strong, and independent.

Refreshments served at 6:30pm, presentation begins at 7:00pm
