Did you know that your inner ear is an important component of your balance system? Balance is a complex relationship between what your eyes see, what your body feels, and what movement is sensed by the semicircular canals in your inner ear.

Learn how movement builds your balance foundation from the ground up!

Join workshop presenters, FHN Audiologist Anneliese Hartman, AuD, and FHN Physical Therapist, Baylee Alderman, PT, DPT, as they:

• Address the fundamentals of balance and mobility for the dizzy population
• Fall prevention and rising from the floor safely
• Improving overall quality of movement
• Providing the tools to manage balance at home
• Incorporating balance into daily life

Participants are asked to wear comfortable clothing they can move in.

Registration is required as space is limited.
