Parkinson's Disease

What is Parkinson's Disease? And what causes the disease? Those living with Parkinson's disease face challenges in their daily life caused by symptoms like tremors, stiffness, slowing motion, and unbalance. As the disease progresses, it can turn your daily tasks—such as eating, bathing, working in the kitchen and walking—into daunting chores. Assistive devices can make these tasks easier so you feel more confident.

If you or a loved one are affected by Parkinson’s Disease, you might wonder how this coronavirus can affect you. There is a lot to wrap your head around, both physically and mentally. We want to encourage a positive frame of mind and extend extra mindfulness and compassion with some self-care techniques especially for Parkinson's disease patients.
