Physiotherapy plays a crucial role in managing Parkinson's disease, helping individuals maintain independence and improve quality of life. It addresses motor symptoms, improves function, and prevents secondary complications through various techniques like strength training, gait retraining, and balance exercises.
Benefits of Physiotherapy for Parkinson's:
Improved Motor Function: Enhances movement, coordination, and balance.
Reduced Falls: Improved balance and gait training decrease the risk of falls.
Increased Independence: Allows individuals to maintain more independence in daily activities.
Improved Quality of Life: By addressing motor symptoms and promoting physical well-being, physiotherapy enhances overall quality of life.
Potential Disease-Modifying Effects: High-intensity aerobic exercise may offer benefits in the early stages of Parkinson's.
At Parkinson’s Physiotherapy we are dedicated to providing a person-centred care approach for people living with Parkinson’s disease (PD). Our team of specialists work alongside our clients to better understand their needs and goals to improve independence, quality of life and well-being.
Our goal was to create a team of experienced and skilled neurological allied health professionals that have a special interest in helping clients with Parkinson's disease.
