Exercise is an important part of healthy living for everyone. For people with Parkinson’s Disease (PD), exercise is more than healthy-it is a vital component to maintaining balance, mobility & activities for daily living. Exercise & physical activity can improve many Parkinson’s Disease symptoms. These benefits are supported by research.
The Parkinson’s Outcomes Project shows that people with Parkinson’s Disease who start exercising earlier and a minimum of 2.5 hours a week, experience a slowed decline in quality of life compared to those who start later. Establishing early exercise habits is essential to Parkinson’s disease management.
Work with one of our Physical Therapist or Exercise Specialist one-on-one to combat symptoms.
Research evidence strongly suggests that increased physical exercise may not only improve physical function in older adults but may also improve mood and slow the progression of cognitive decline.
The evidence surrounding the effectiveness of regular exercise in healthy individuals is overwhelming. Most people know regular exercise will significantly lower your risk of developing cardiovascular disease, type 2 Diabetes and some cancers.
But not many are aware of the substantial benefit of regular supervised exercise in individuals dealing with cognitive impairment as well. People who regularly perform strength training and aerobic exercise, have greater scores on neuropsychological function and performance tests that measure cognitive function. Some of these functions include attentional control, inhibitory control, memory and cognitive flexibility.
Falls cause over 90% of hip fractures and 60% of head injuries among older adults. Fear of falling often prevents seniors from staying active, which lowers their quality of life and puts unneeded stress and hardship on their loved ones.
Our approach to fall prevention starts with conducting a thorough assessment. We ask questions and conduct appropriate walking and mobility tests. Upon completion, we will provide our professional recommendation going forward based on our findings and your goals.
The recommendation usually consists of a prescribed exercise routine supervised by one of our professionals. Each routine we prescribe contains a combination of muscle strengthening and range of motion exercises to not only prevent falls, but also enable a heart-pumping, muscle-burning workout at the same time!
Our hands-on approach is proven to restore confidence and strength from a previous fall & prevent falls from re-occurring.
Balance & Fall Prevention personal training is well suited for individuals with age-related illnesses or injuries who have suffered a fall, or are at a high risk of falling, and desire a “fall specific” exercise and rehabilitation program.

Everyone needs exercise, but it’s especially important for people with arthritis. Exercise increases strength and makes moving easier. Exercise reduces joint pain and helps fight tiredness.
Of course, when joints are stiff and painful, the thought of walking around the block or swimming a few laps might seem like too much. There’s no need to run a marathon or swim for miles. Even moderate exercise can ease pain and help you stay at a healthy weight. In short, when arthritis tries to slow you down, exercise can keep you moving.
