Weekly Blog Posts!

Hey everyone, and welcome back to another weekly blog post about Parkinson's disease.

I believe that it would be necessary to focus on treatment for at least one more week.

This week, I would like to shift your focus on the treatment of Parkinson's disease with therapy.


Therapies of Parkinson's disease are used to delay the onset of motor symptoms, and are also designed to increase the levels of dopamine, which is the brain-signaling chemical. There are two types of therapy that are currently used, gene and drug therapy.

Hello again, everybody!
Welcome to my weekly blog posts, and for anyone new please look at my older blog posts to check up on information.

This week I would be to continued to talk about what's being done for patients that must deal with the symptoms associated with Parkinson's disease.

As of right there are some other types of treatment that are able to help those who have developed Parkinson's.


One of those other types of treatment is moderate/ regular exercise, which can improve motor function.

Weekly Blog Posts!

Welcome back to another week of weekly blog posts about Parkinson's disease!
Throughout the past three weeks, the posts have been focused on the foundations that are in the process of discovering a cure for Parkinson's disease, and are devoted 100% to research.
I believe that now it is time to focus on what is being done about Parkinson's disease today, and how patients are able to cope with the symptoms associated with Parkinson's.


Currently, the most effective way for patients to be able to deal with the symptoms of Parkinson's disease is through medication treatment which can be prescribed by either doctors, or handing over the counter at your local pharmacy by a certified pharmacist.
