What Is LSVT BIG?
LSVT BIG (Lee Silverman Voice Treatment – BIG) is an intensive, one-on-one physiotherapy program proven to help individuals with Parkinson’s Disease improve:
- Walking speed and stride length
- Balance and upright posture
- Arm and leg movement
- Functional tasks like dressing, writing, and getting out of a chair
Backed by decades of clinical research, LSVT BIG retrains your brain and body to use larger, more purposeful movements, helping to counteract the slow, small motions caused by Parkinson’s.
What Are The Benefits of LSTV BIG Treatment?
Using customized, full-body exercises based on the principle of “Think BIG!”, LSVT BIG teaches your body how normal movement should feel again. At first, these larger movements may feel exaggerated — but they are actually closer to normal, healthy movement patterns. With practice, they begin to feel natural.
Clinically Proven Benefits:
- Faster walking with longer strides and fuller arm swings
- Better balance and core rotation (twisting at the waist)
- Improved fine motor skills like buttoning shirts or handwriting
- Greater ease with large movements like getting out of bed or dressing
Because Parkinson’s affects body awareness, the program emphasizes high repetition, home practice, and real-world functional assignments. This helps you consistently use BIG movements in everyday life — increasing confidence, comfort, and control.
In just one month of focused therapy, LSVT BIG can unlock noticeable, life-changing improvements in function and independence.
Who is LSTV BIG Treatment For?
- Parkinson’s Disease (at any stage)
- Atypical Parkinsonism
- Other neurological conditions that affect movement

Parkinson’s Treatment Physiotherapy Oakville FAQs
How Is LSVT BIG Different From Regular Physiotherapy?
The program also emphasizes neuroplasticity, meaning it helps the brain form new pathways to support better movement. LSVT BIG isn’t just exercise—it’s a therapeutic approach proven to reshape how patients perceive and control movement in real-world situations.
When Should Someone With Parkinson's Start LSVT BIG?
Even if someone is not experiencing major mobility issues yet, the program can serve as a proactive measure—improving awareness, coordination, and daily functioning. Think of it as “prehabilitation,” where patients invest in their future mobility, independence, and quality of life by starting early and staying consistent.
