Exercise for Parkinson's<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Regular exercise helps you stay mobile and independent for as long as possible. Physiotherapy supports this by looking at what you *can* still do. The focus is not on limitations, but on possibilities. With targeted exercises, you work on strength, balance, and coordination, so that daily activities such as walking, standing up, and turning over continue to go better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why physiotherapy helps<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In Parkinson's, muscle control changes. As a result, movements become smaller, slower, or less confident. Physiotherapy helps to compensate for these changes. Through structure, repetition, and practical strategies, movement becomes safer and more manageable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fall prevention also plays an important role. By paying attention to posture, gait, and balance, the risk of falling decreases. This provides more confidence in daily life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Attention to you and your surroundings<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Parkinson's affects more than just the person with the diagnosis. Caregivers and loved ones also face changes. That is why we involve them in the support where necessary. With practical advice and explanations, we work together to create a safe and manageable situation at home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
