Stay steady and strong this winter to avoid a fall. Seminar and exercise recommendations led by a Physical Therapist.

The West Branch Library is holding a seminar that will address common fall risks during the winter months and tips on prevention. A physical therapist will demonstrate balance and strength exercises that participants can utilize to avoid falls; there will be an active practice session for those who are interested. Additionally, we will show the safest landing techniques in the case of a slip or fall and signs to look for that warrant medical treatment. There will be a post-seminar Q&A with a doctor of physical therapy.

This program is free and open to the public. For ages 18+. Registration is required as space is limited. Please visit us online or at the Public Service Desk or call the West Branch Library at 978-535-3354 for more info.
