The sounds of Ping-Pong balls being hit back and forth filled a room in the St. George Recreation Center as a group of nearly 30 older adults gathered for the game with a common purpose – to socialize, engage in physical activity and “put their brains to work” in a program called NeuroPong.
Dr. Antonio Barbera, a former obstetrician-gynecologist who is now living with multiple sclerosis, is founder and CEO of Table Tennis Connections in Fort Collins, Colorado, which launched its NeuroPong program in 2021.
It’s a game that can be played at nearly any age. Table Tennis, commonly known as Ping Pong, has been around since the late 1800’s. The sport has become extremely popular for seniors who want to keep their minds sharp without so much physical activity on the body.
FORT COLLINS, Colo. — Dr. Antonio Barbera may not be able to practice medically anymore, but he has found a way to help hundreds of people alleviate their symptoms.
Antonio Barbera helped thousands as a doctor before multiple sclerosis forced him to give up his career. He found a new way to help others, and himself, get better by playing ping pong.
FORT COLLINS, Colo. — At Table Tennis Connections in Northern Colorado, the mission is to create an environment where everybody can connect around a blue table.
