Default Anyone try touch therapy?

Thanks for this inspiring, interesting discovery. This seems closely tied to finding that PWP when singing or otherwise immersed in melody lost their tremor.

Speaking of ways to wellness, i am going to leap to another alternative help us realign or reconnect at holistic level. I know that many of us realize stress in form of pent up emotion may indeed play a part in the onset of PD.I have read that touch therapy like the gentle guidance offered through the Alexander Technique has shown clinical benefit to PWP. Has anyone tried this?

I am also quite interested in Swedish technique known as Rolfing that does actually help some in the release of emotion trapped in our muscle memory and tissue. I have actually heard of people receiving a full series of 10 treatments and having a completely different posture, gait, etc. as a result.
I would also like to hear experiences with this approach too.

Thanks!

Laura
