Parkinson’s Disease Exercise class

January 21, 2020

If you have recently been diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease (PD), you may be wondering what your options are for keeping well. One of the most important aspects to staying well is exercise. Targeted specialised exercise for Parkinson’s Disease will be even more beneficial.

The mainstays of management of Parkinson’s Disease are medication and exercise. Many symptoms of Parkinson’s Disease, for example, slower movement, will be targeted specifically in this class. Men and women of any age are welcome. One must be independently walking to be suitable for the class.

We are commencing a class specifically designed for people with Parkinson’s Disease. The class is designed and led by a physiotherapist. It runs for 8 weeks and it will take place on Mondays at 5pm. Prior booking is important, as we will do a thorough individual assessment specific to Parkinson’s Disease of each participant before their first class. Contact us for any further information 0527445477.
