Description

Are you or is someone you love at risk for a fall injury? Join John Tuitele, physical therapist, to learn how to prevent falls. According to the CDC, one out of five falls causes a serious injury such as a broken bone or head injury. Are you or is someone you love at risk for a fall? John Tuitele is a physical therapist at Banner Health with over 30 years of practice experience both in the hospital and outpatient settings. He will help you develop tools for fall prevention by summarizing, simplifying and blending human movement science & research with well accepted strength training principles. For most senior adults, this approach to balance recovery requires no special equipment beyond a stable chair, body weight and a little hard work. The goal is to enhance natural responses and decrease likelihood of falls. Please wear comfortable, loose clothing and flat shoes, preferably workout shoes.
