Exercise for Better Health


Exercise classes in various location for active seniors, to help prevent falls and benefit individuals with Parkinson's.   Registration required by calling Ann Burke, RN, at  203.458.4284 or email aburke@vna-commh.org.

 

"Long-term studies have pinpointed exercise as the single most potent predictor of healthy logevity, in women as well as in men.  It is not that very old people can exercise because they are healthy, these findings indicate. Rather, they achieve a health old age because they exercise."

               Jane Brody, Personal Health, New York Times, August 26, 2008
