Fall Prevention & Tai Chi Program
- fall prevention
Join me Friday, September 21st at the Garden City Library for a "Fall Prevention & Tai Chi Program."
Did you know that 1 in 3 older adults will fall each year, and 1 in 5 falls result in a serious injury such as a broken bone or a head injury?
Catherine Dunckley, a Certified Health Education Specialist at Northwell Health, will discuss topics related to fall prevention, including muscle weakness and balance issues, vision problems, the use of medications, proper footwear, and home and community hazards.
After the presentation, Ms. Dunckley will demonstrate Tai Chi, an ancient Chinese tradition consisting of gentle movements. Tai Chi can help to improve balance, reduce pain and stress while promoting inner peace and serenity.
Reservations for this FREE event are required. Please call my community office at 516-739-1700 to sign up today.
