Within this framework, LSVT offers exceptional adaptability by:
By integrating neuroplasticity principles like intensity, repetition, and saliency, LSVT achieves both scientific rigor and individualized care. This dual approach enables universally effective protocols while optimizing outcomes for each unique patient, improving lives across a wide spectrum of neurological conditions.
In this episode, we are joined by two experts in the field, Angela Halpern and Laura Gusé, to delve into how LSVT treatments embrace this paradox, transforming neurological rehabilitation and enhancing the quality of life for countless individuals.
