When the nerve cells in the brain that produce dopamine become impaired or die, it leads to difficulty making and controlling movements. As the disease progresses, it can significantly interfere with daily activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The exact cause of Parkinson\u2019s disease is unknown, but several key factors seem to play a role.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Age<\/strong>: 60 years of age or older.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Environmental factors<\/strong>: Exposure to certain toxins.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Genetics<\/strong>: Having a close relative with Parkinson\u2019s disease.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.physio-pedia.com\/Gait\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Gait training<\/a> is a type of physical therapy designed to improve your ability to stand and walk. It\u2019s particularly beneficial for individuals with Parkinson\u2019s disease because it targets the specific challenges they face, such as balance issues and gait abnormalities. The goal is to increase mobility, safety, and independence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our physical therapists use a variety of exercises and therapies during gait training.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Walking Drills to Improve Stride Length and Speed<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Exercises focused on increasing the length of each step and the speed at which a person walks. For someone with Parkinsons, this could look like:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Practicing walking over marked lines on the floor to encourage longer strides<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Using a metronome to set a pace for stepping<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Walking in different directions like forward, backward, and side-to-side to improve the ability to stop, start, and change directions<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Balance Training to Reduce the Risk of Falls<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Individuals with Parkinson\u2019s disease face an increased risk of falls associated with the effects of the disease. Our physical therapists often design exercises that simulate real-life scenarios that could lead to falls by teaching strategies to navigate them safely. These activities challenge the body\u2019s balance systems to improve coordination. Balance exercises may include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Practicing movements that isolate the upper and lower body to aid in daily self-care activities\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Dressing and undressing with shirts and jackets<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Brushing or styling hair<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Drying off the lower body after bathing<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Walking around and over obstacles<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Incorporating reaching activities while standing in a staggered stance, feet together, or while moving\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Picking up food items and putting them in the cart while grocery shopping<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Completing the movements of opening a car door, sitting down, and closing the car door<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Strength Training to Build Muscle Around Key Joints<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We focus on building the muscles that support key joints for stability, like the hips, knees, and ankles. Strengthening exercises help to manage the rigidity and weakness caused by the disease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Resistance bands<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Free weights<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Body-weight exercises<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Stretching Exercises to Improve Range of Motion<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Stretching major muscle groups with a focus on those particularly affected by the disease, like the legs, back, and shoulders. These exercises can reduce stiffness, improve posture, and increase mobility for both walking and daily activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Lasting and Supportive Help with PhysioSource Physical Therapy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Our comprehensive gait training program can significantly improve the balance, mobility, and overall quality of life of patients with Parkinson\u2019s disease.
