Short Bio |
My husband has Parkinson’s or Parkinson’ plus. He has been seen by several neurologists and surgeons. He has been on Levodopa/Cardopa for 6 months, with no positive affect on his freezing. DBS is not an option at this point, as it could be harmful. I am a Physical Therapist who has worked with many Parkinson’s patients over 38 years, and know the cueing etc. to assist someone out of the freezing occurrence. I also have a 4WW which has a unit attached to it with a laser, to create a target, and a metronome which can be adjusted to different tempos.
