LSVT LOUD Program
Support Group Meeting - 7:00 - 8:30 p.m.
TOPIC: LSVT LOUD
The prgram trains people with PD to use their voice at a more normal loudness level while speaking at home, work, or in the community. Key to the treatment is helping people "recalibrate" their perceptions so they know how loud or soft they sound to other people and can feel comfortable using a stronger voice at a normal loudness level.
