About Specialized Movement Disorder PT
At EA Therapeutic Health, we follow the most accurate and latest research in exercise and therapy. We believe through experience that physical activity and exercise can slow the progression of the symptoms of Parkinson Disease and other movement disorders. Initial and periodic Physical Therapy (PT) evaluations are essential to get a baseline in your function, balance, and mobility safety as well as to get important education about you and your movement disorder. We recommend an initial bought of PT to learn important safe mobility, tuning up to prepare for lifelong health, and to learn exercise basics. After this, we recommend yearly check-in with your PT or as needed with changes in your mobility and movement control.
