That research at UAB is terrific. You guys are doing terrific work there.

Along those lines...

I did a search on BIG Physical Therapists -- physical therapists who specialize in working with people with Parkinsons disease. I found this listing on the LSVT website.

If there are none near you - look for physical therapists who specialize in treating neurological patients.

I have been a "test patient" for Dr. Becky Farley when she was training other PTs in these techniques. (Sheryl has as well.) The training is remarkable and I think it would help all pwp.

Now I have to get off my duff and get a script from my doctor to get this training. I'm lucky (I know) that there is a trained PT not too far from me. I need to just make myself do it! There are things we can do to help ourselves, but we have to help ourselves - at a certain point no one else can.
