Exercise Group for People with Parkinson Disease

This class is based on the information outlined in Parkinson’s Disease and the Art of Moving by John Argue. The program builds on the premise that “soft” exercise can help delay the progression of symptoms while helping individuals lead more active and comfortable lives. 

Instruction is based on individual ability with emphasis placed on:

• Increasing flexibility, strength, balance, and coordination.
• Improving communication by developing vocal strength and clarity of speech.
• Helping individuals meet daily challenges.
• Improving symptoms – tremors, rigidity, poor balance, reduced range of motion, and other associated symptoms. 

The support of spouses and caregivers is beneficial for the success of any treatment, and their attendance is encouraged.
