Parkinson's Disease

A progressive neurologic condition that affects movement, balance, energy, and often mood and sleep.

In simple language

Parkinson's disease can cause slowness, stiffness, tremor, balance changes, sleep problems, constipation, and mood symptoms. It affects more than movement alone.

Function often depends on combining medication timing with strength, balance work, routines, and support for non-motor symptoms.
