PROBLEM-BASED, SOLUTION-FOCUSED EXERCISE FOR PARKINSON’S
How often do you struggle with moving around in bed, getting up from a couch, passing through doors or other daily challenges?
What if it were possible to have an exercise program developed to help you address your specific issues in a fun but challenging way?
WELL, NOW YOU CAN!
Join us for a conversation about this possibility, provided as part of a grant-funded initiative through PFWPA with Parkinson’s specialists Josefa Domingos and John Dean. Together they are building a series of videos that include a video interview identifying the specific daily problems identified by volunteers with Parkinson’s along with a custom exercise video created specifically to address that problem.
The session will include a demonstration of the initial work, produced in collaboration with local volunteers living with Parkinson’s. There will also be details about how you can participate in this unique project.
P R E S E N T E RS
Portuguese physiotherapist, Josefa Domingos and American speech language pathologist, John Dean specialize in the treatment of Parkinson’s and related disorders, with a combined experience working exclusively with this community for nearly 30 years. Since 2011, they have been collaborating on the Triad, an approach that combines movement, voice, and cognition into engaging and challenging exercise. This approach also allows them to replicate many of the daily challenges people living with Parkinson’s face to address these issues more directly and ultimately, more effectively.
