    I try to get at least one massage treatment in per week, 2 if I can afford it.  I find it has helped a lot with my stiffness and rigidity symptoms as I mentioned in my column: https://parkinsonsnewstoday.com/2018/08/07/parkinsons-disease-battle-plan-includes-lifestyle-changes-medication/

    Plus it is great “me” time.    Before PD onset, when I was an athlete, I valued massage as an excellent treatment for recovery from hard workouts.

    Do you use massage to help with any of your PD symptoms?  If so, which ones and how often do you get a massage?
