Parkinson’s Disease Treatment

Understanding Parkinson’s Disease

Parkinson’s disease is a progressive neurological disorder that affects movement control. It is characterized by tremors, stiffness, slowness of movement, and impaired balance. The exact cause is unknown, but it involves the degeneration of dopamine-producing neurons in the brain. Early diagnosis and management can help control symptoms and improve quality of life.

Physiotherapy is essential for managing Parkinson’s disease. It focuses on improving mobility, strength, balance, and overall functional abilities. Treatment plans often include exercises to enhance coordination, gait training, and strategies for daily living to help maintain independence and manage symptoms effectively.
