Hello. Has anyone heard of this/visited?

Thanks

[MBAnderson]

They are intentionally vague as to what their therapy is, except from the pictures and content, it appears to be Yoga/calisthenics, walking, and information/counseling, all of which you can find free on the Internet.

I saw nothing on the website that would cause me to consider is $1400 for their 2 week program. (A room to yourself is $10 a night extra.)

I visited it 3 years ago. They teach you how to face your condition at the best level you can do. They spread the importance of 4 pillars in treatment (medical, physical, life style, psychological).

Lot of passion and kindness, beautyful place, excellent food... helpful

My husband and I went there pre Covid for a week. The therapy was fantastic, the best thing we have ever done for helping my husband with PD. Individual therapy for each person, nutrition, talks, physio - it s a fantastic place. Alex the founder has PD and is inspirational I couldn’t speak more highly about him and his staff!

I wish we had the equivalent place in London and my husband would be attending it!

Alex Reed is a good guy and has had PD for more than a decade. I'm sure they would be the first to agree they are not doing anything revolutionary but then neither do rehab clinics and they get plenty of business for good reasons.

Chiedo scusa se rispondo in italiano, ma il mio inglese è pessimo. Mio marito ci è stato più volte e ne ha sempre tratto grandi benefici. Purtroppo in questo periodo non ci possiamo andare, ne avrebbe davvero bisogno!

Traslation:“I apologize if I answer in Italian, but my English is bad. My husband has been there several times and has always benefited greatly from it. Unfortunately, we can't go at this time, he really needs it!”

Thank you for your response. It’s much appreciated x

I only did the translation of Pinca6's message above.

However, if you come to Italy you are welcome, I add only that the food is good and the location is very pleasant in the period you have chosen.Gio
