ABOUT PARKINSON'S DISEASE

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive, neurological disorder that affects the nerve cells in the brain. When the nerve cells in the brain are affected, they stop producing dopamine which controls body movements, critical thinking, and other behaviors. Common observable symptoms of Parkinson’s disease include slurred speech, irregular facial expressions, balance disorders, muscle and joint stiffness, slowed movement, and severe tremors.

This disease is the second leading brain disorder in the United States after Alzheimer's disease. The exact cause of PD is unknown and symptoms progress at different rates in every individual. This makes the disease very difficult to diagnose. We refer patients who show PD related symptoms to a neurologist to be tested.

HOW THERAPY CAN HELP

Fortunately, physical, occupational, and speech therapy can help slow the progress of Parkinson’s and provide relief for symptoms. It also helps to improve flexibility and strength by addressing several issues that Parkinson’s disease may cause, including abnormal gait, freezing, and dystonia.
