Winter is here to stay and along with it came the inevitable snow and ice. This can put a huge damper on
anyone’s social life, leaving many pf us with the “winter blues.” Many times we are unable to safely go places, and
are hesitant to leave home due to the possibility of an accident or
falling. Soon spring will come and we
will get back to not thinking twice about stepping out the door. For some people though (this may be you or likely
someone you know) that fear of leaving the house never goes away due to a
lingering concern of having an accident, falling, and feeling helpless. Agape Therapy offers a class called A Matter
of Balance to help individuals with those very real and burdening fears of
falling. If you are: concerned about
falls, have sustained a fall in the past, restrict activities because of
concerns about falling, are interested in improving your flexibility, balance,
and strength, and are age 60 or older ambulatory and able to problem-solve this
class is for you. A new session will be
beginning Feb. 7th 2012 at the Cedar Falls Agape Therapy and will be
provided free thanks to the Wellmark Foundation. For more information and to sign up please
call 277-3166.
