Parkinson’s Disease Programs at Bodyworks Physical Therapy
Parkinson’s Disease (PD) is a neurologic condition that affects a person’s ability to move. It is the second most common age-related neurodegenerative disorder after Alzheimer’s disease, with a prevalence of nearly 1 million people in the US, and an additional 90,000 diagnosed each year.
What is Parkinson’s Disease?
Parkinson’s Disease is characterized by symptoms that typically develop gradually over time. Due to the variability in presentation and progression, the presence of the disease tends to precede a formal diagnosis. While there is no cure, extensive research is being conducted exploring various genetic and environmental components. Check out our blog post, “Parkinson’s Disease Explained” to learn the early signs of Parkinson’s disease.
Our Approach to Parkinson’s Disease Treatment
At Bodyworks Physical Therapy, we offer specialized programs designed to address the unique needs of individuals with Parkinson’s Disease.
Physical therapy treatments such as LSVT BIG are designed specifically for individuals with Parkinson’s Disease. Each program provides one-on-one individualized treatment specific to your symptoms, abilities, and goals. Consistent participation in these programs can promote neurologic changes, helping individuals “recalibrate” their movements to move bigger and better in daily life.
