Exercise can and does make a difference to your Parkinson's Disease progression.
I am qualified to deliver Parkinson’s Disease specific exercise.
With Parkinson's Disease optimal medication + optimal exercise program = Improved quality of life and improved function.
Attending a group class positively impact some of your non-motor symptoms. Exercise can help with depression, anxiety and apathy. Join our classes and be in a room with others who share and understand your situation. You will feel more comfortable, and get all those lovely social benefits as well.
To get good outcomes to slow the PD progresson we aim to do quality, consistent movements that challenge you.
These classes integrate PD Warrior principles, CounterPunch boxing skills, strength, balance exercises, cognitive games and a bit of laughter to deliver a session that will challenge.
We need to combine brain and body to get the desired benefits. Exercise with Parkinson's Disease needs to include new movements and sequences. Yes - walking and golf are great. Keep doing those. Adding new challenges stimulates the brain to reorganise, grow and change its neural pathways, which positively impacts your Parkinson's.
