Typical Symptoms:
Common Causes:
We tailor therapy to address walking, balance, and mobility. Exercises to improve gait mechanics, posture, and coordination help maintain independence. We can collaborate with speech, occupational, and medical professionals for a comprehensive plan. Within Palm Beach County, we regularly assist individuals at different Parkinson’s stages—some newly diagnosed, others managing advanced symptoms. Early sessions may include large-amplitude movements, cueing strategies (like stepping with a visual or auditory signal), and exercises that enhance trunk rotation. Over time, we incorporate balance drills and muscle strengthening to offset the stiffness and slower movements characteristic of PD. Each treatment is adapted to your comfort level, helping you stay active and engaged in everyday tasks.

Key Benefits:
Parkinson’s is progressive, but consistent therapy can slow functional decline and maintain independence for a longer period. Regular reassessments let us adjust your program as symptoms evolve, ensuring you receive the right mix of strength, flexibility, and functional training. With dedicated participation in physical therapy, many patients retain the ability to walk unassisted, manage personal care, and maintain a higher quality of life over time.
Will physical therapy cure Parkinson’s?
No. There’s no cure for PD, but therapy helps maximize function and mobility to maintain a better quality of life.
How often should I do my exercises?
Daily or near-daily practice is recommended. We’ll provide a home program to complement in-clinic sessions.
