It will be a little while before I get to this to give it the detail and attention it deserves, but basically… Parkinson’s disease is a progressive neurologic condition that currently has no cure. With Parkinson’s disease, the dopamine producing cells within the substantia nigra of the brain have begun to die off. As a result there is less available dopamine. This causes a myriad of problems, including stiffness, a tremor, sleep disorders and many others.
The good news is, people with Parkinson’s have the power to slow the progression of this disease through exercise. The primary purpose of this website, is to help shift the mindset of those living with Parkinson’s disease from one of doom and gloom to embracing this new set of challenges and get to work exercising and living your life.
