Presented By HouseFit Geriatric Physical Therapist Dr. Beth Templin
People with Parkinson's Disease (PD) can present with a large variety of symptoms, which is why two people with PD can look very different from one another. The four main symptoms of PD are tremors, slowness of movement, stiffness, and impaired balance.
Fortunately, all of these symptoms can be improved with intense exercise. You may be surprised to hear that intense exercise is recommended for a progressive disorder such as PD. It's actually what research has shown to be most effective at managing the symptoms and slowing the progression.
If you want to learn more about the best exercise options for people living with PD, then register to attend the free Parkinson's & Exercise Workshop at HouseFit.

- Why you shouldn't accept losing your independence with Parkinson's.
- How intense exercise helps slow the disease progression.
- How exercise can improve your balance and even prevent falls.
