Ep 5: Exercise for People with Parkinson’s - From the Gym to Physical Therapy
When it comes to slowing down the progression of Parkinson’s disease, exercise is critical. But you don't need to be a lifelong athlete to benefit.
In this episode, we hear why exercise is so important, and some easy ways people living with Parkinson’s can get started today.
We also cover the importance of physical and occupational therapy, and hear tips on how home adaptations can help manage symptoms.
