The physical therapist who leads the local PWR! Up class recommended these Neurofit videos for days when class doesn't meet. They come from B.C. You have your choice of warm-up videos, followed by a workout, then a cool-down. They're terrific!

Thanks Beckey. Also check out neurostudio, feldenkrais and neuromovement. All appear to be beneficial for Pd.
I just did the warmups, like'em...
Hi Beckey. Have you tried doing fast walking? If not you are missing out something that is very vital. Fast walking helps the brain produce GDNF, which s a natural protein that repairs the damaged brain cells, which is what the name implies. GDNF stands for Glial Derived Neurotrophic Factor> Glal cells are the very cells that are damaged or destroyed by the Pd. Neurotrophic means nerve repair. YES! Our brains produce our own REPAIR KIT!
I did not invent that name. Doctors know what GDNF is and yet nobody talks about it. Why would they? In my opinion, nobody other than ourselves and our families want us to get better! Why would they? We are CASH COWS!
