2017 Walk to End Alzheimer's - Boca Raton | Cardioflex Therapy Outpatient & Home Physical Therapy

CardioFlex Therapy is proud to support the Alzheimer’s Association’s 2017 Walk to End Alzheimer’s event on Sunday, September 17th in Mizner Park, Boca Raton. Registration starts at 6:30 am and the walk begins at 8:30 am at the Mizner Park Amphitheatre. The walk is two miles and participants are not required to pay any fees to participate. There will be fun arts and crafts activities for kids as well as snacks, coffee and water will be available. Volunteers are needed to help with set-up, clean-up, registration, water stops, promise garden, the T-shirt tent, and other activities.

The focus of physical therapy (PT) with dementia care is to improve balance, muscle strength, and mobility and provide pain management. People with Alzheimer’s or dementia are at greater risk of falls and mobility problems due to muscular weakness, history of falls, gait, balance deficits, and cognitive impairment.
Alzheimer’s disease is the sixth-leading cause of death in the United States and the only cause of death among the top 10 in the United States that cannot be prevented, cured or even slowed. All funds raised through Walk to End Alzheimer’s further the mission of Alzheimer’s Association: to eliminate Alzheimer’s disease through the advancement of research; to provide and enhance care and support for all affected, and to reduce the risk of dementia through the promotion of brain health.
