Getting enough exercise is important to every person for numerous reasons. However, for the Parkinson’s patient it seems to possibly be even more important. For the PD patient, muscle weakness, coordination or balance issues, fatigue, mood fluctuations and other changes that happen over time can be improved by adding exercises to your weekly routine.
In the next 2 episodes, we speak with well recognized PD fitness experts, Nate Coomer with the Parkinson’s Fitness Project and Dr. Becky Farley the founder of Parkinson’s Wellness Recovery or PWR!. Both have spent their careers working to improve the PD patient’s quality of life through exercise. We discuss not only why but what exercises are most helpful. And, how best to carry on when we are unable to go to a gym during the coronavirus crisis. You don’t want to miss these episodes.
