LARSO Graduates Fourth ‘Matter Of Balance’ Class

 

Last week LARSO graduated its fourth ‘Matter of Balance’ class at the White Rock Senior Center. The Evidence-based fall prevention program began last May, offering free classes to community members 60 and up who are members of the local senior centers. Master Trainers Kate Cleveland, bottom left, and Bernadette Lauritzen, bottom right, are two of three instructors who guide seniors through eight sessions of easy to implement lifestyle changes.

Glenn Banks of Christus St. Vincent Sports Medicine is all in for fall prevention. The program includes a visit from a guest professional, and his talk focuses on tips, tools and top of mind topics related to physical therapy and his 25 years of experience. Here he shows seniors what to do if a fall has taken place, including not rushing to get up or allowing anyone to pull you up, which could cause an injury. Courtesy/LARSO
