The importance of exercise and physical activity for people diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease (PD) has been well documented. Exercise produces many benefits including increased physical functioning (motor performance, strength, endurance), improved gait and balance, cardiovascular fitness, and overall better quality of life. As such, great strides are being made to make exercise a part of the standard treatment of PD.
There has been a lot of focus on developing group fitness classes for people with Parkinson's, and while they are great for many people, we realize that they are not for everyone. Here at the POWER Institute we are able to provide one-on-one training for people who aren't willing or able to partake in group classes. We will even come to your home! This personal attention allows us to tailor fitness plans specifically for your needs.
