Poor balance your No. 1 issue? Don't miss this FPN webinar!

Posted by Ray Kemble @ray666, 12 hours ago

Hello!

My PN is chronic idiopathic axonal polyneuropathy. I have no pain, but tons of balance issues. This morning, I was on hand for the live broadcast of the latest Foundation for Peripheral Neuropathy webinar, "Regain your balance: Therapy and exercise for neuropathy patients." It was by far the most informative webinar for a fellow like me, with my particular brand of PN. The webinar was recorded and will be available on the FPN website (foundationforpn.org) in a few days, under News & Events: Past Webinars. If poor balance is your No. 1 issue, I encourage you to watch––with pen & pad at the ready!––this exceptional webinar.

Cheers!

Did you notice the emphasis on brain Neuroplasticity 🙂. I thought it was a really interesting and informative webinar. I did take a couple of screenshots for a few of the slides but am interested in looking at the apps they mentioned for training the visual and brain to help with balance.

I was note-taking furiously as I watched. I know I missed a lot. I'm looking forward to the posting of the recording so I use my pause button. I, too, am looking forward to learning more about the various apps. The webinar's emphasis on neuroplasticity proved to be a bit of a coincidence for me as I just finished reading Nicholas Carr's "The Shallows" in which Carr writes extensively about neuroplasticity.
