FIGHT PARKINSON'S DISEASE HEAD ON- ARE YOU A PD WARRIOR?

PD Warriors are men and women, young and old who want to fight their Parkinson's disease head on. Our motto is "Use it and improve it!". Used in combination with optimal medication, our PD Warrior program works to improve one of the primary problems leading to movement disorders in Parkinson’s disease. Our PD Warrior program is unique in Australia and is based on intense exercise that is targeted specifically to improve the most common symptoms of Parkinson's disease.....slow, small movements. As the first clinic in Australia to be accredited to run the LSVT BIG program, our program has taken these principals and amplified them to create a program unlike any other. Our program is effective, challenging and most importantly.........fun! We can help you fight the signs of Parkinson's disease and help you to continue living a full life, every step of the way.

Although physiotherapy and exercise cannot reverse or cure Parkinson's disease, it has been shown to slow disease progression. At the cellular level, the right kind of exercise can improve the efficiency of the remaining brain pathways not already destroyed by the disease. This can help to prolong independent function, cardiovascular fitness and reduce the risk of falls.

Unfortunately, many people with Parkinson’s disease do not see a physiotherapist until they have started falling or are already having major difficulties. We would suggest that the earlier the intervention the better. If you want to fight your Parkinson's disease head on, join the war and become a PD Warrior. 

In addition to our PD Warrior program, our Parkinson’s Disease Mobility Clinic also uses many other ways to keep people with Parkinson’s Disease moving for as long as possible, this may include home visits, gym programs and the use of assistance devices and equipment. We can make a plan together to keep you on your feet and doing the things you love doing. Call us today for a FREE phone consultation.
