MOVE YOUR BODY
exercise & physical therapy
Let's get moving!
Exercise is medicine, and has been proven to slow the progression of PD. Additionally, moving your body yields many other benefits:
- Enhances balances and reduces falls
- Reduces motor & non-motor symptoms
- Promotes a more efficient dopaminergic system
- Improves mental well-being & quality of life
In addition to exercise, physical therapy can help with fall prevention, pain management, balance, flexibility and more.
Please seek guidance from a healthcare professional to identify the most suitable and safest physical activity for your needs.
Below is a list of exercise and PT offerings in DFW.
