A Matter of Balance - Managing Concerns About Falls

Location: 
High Country Area Agency on Aging

Many older adults experience a fear of falling. People who develop this fear often limit their activities, which can result in physical weakness, making the risk of falling even greater. A Matter of Balance: Managing Concerns About Falls is a program designed for empowerment to reduce the fear of falling and increase activity levels among older adults.  

A Matter of Balance includes eight two-hour sessions for a small group led by a trained facilitator. Classes will meet at the Watauga County Public Library on Mondays and Thursdays, from 10:00am - 12:00pm, starting March 6th, 2017.  For more information or to sign up, contact Nicole Hiegl at (828) 265-5434 ext. 113.
