MEDIA CLIPS: Online Chair Yoga Viable for Isolated Older Adults with Dementia

The FAU News Desk recently featured the results of a novel interdisciplinary study co-authored by JuYoung Park, Ph.D., MSW, professor in the Sandler School of Social Work. The study evaluated a remotely supervised online chair yoga intervention for older adults with dementia and measured clinical outcomes virtually via Zoom under remote guidance. Results published in Complimentary Therapies in Clinical Practice showed that remotely supervised online chair yoga is a feasible approach for managing physical and psychological symptoms in socially isolated older adults with dementia - another breakthrough in the sphere of healthy aging.
