• Do you know of any resources for early onset Parkinson’s?

    Posted by Community Member on July 7, 2021 at 9:57 am

    It can be difficult to find the right sources for anyone who’s struggle with Parkinson’s disease. But I’ve heard that it’s even harder to find resources for those who have early onset Parkinson’s. Do you know of any resources that target early onset Parkinson’s? Do you have favorite informational sources? Is there anywhere you go for inspiration?

    I teach both Rock Steady Boxing, Mindfulness Yoga and Qigong for Parkinson’s. I feel the most beneficial thing you can do for yourself is to find activities that you enjoy and do them as often as you can. Exercise is like medicine when living with Parkinson’s.

    I am also looking for a resource for early onset of PD. I have no symptoms and I’d like to talk to someone.

    I do Rock Steady Boxing (for all levels of PD).  I also do the Young Onset Circuit Training class (a free YouTube class put out by Power for Parkinson’s.  There’s a new video every week or you can do classes from their video library.).

    The Davis Phinney Organization has great information on YOPD, including webinars.

    Live well!
