Description

This revised edition of The New Parkinson's Treatment: Exercise is Medicine is a must read if you, or someone you know, has been diagnosed with Parkinson's. Exercise cannot be underestimated for its role in slowing Parkinson's down. This book introduces the seven key concepts to help you get the most out of your exercise program, as well as easy strategies and hints to keep you motivated. Based on cutting-edge research and tested extensively by Australian physiotherapists, this exercise program has been designed to bring out your inner warrior - your PD Warrior! The PD Warrior Philosophy is that exercise, education, community and a life-long commitment to fighting the symptoms of Parkinson's can help you develop a greater state of physical, mental and social wellbeing. Neurologists and other health professionals are referring to PD Warrior as a game-changer and, since its launch in Australia in 2012, it has grown exponentially, with extremely successful outcomes and widespread popularity. PD Warrior is not a cure, it's your chance to take control. So start now - you have nothing to lose and everything to gain.
