Sports, Exercise, and Slowing the Progression Parkinson's Disease A Collection of Personal Stories & Research (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798240957307)

This book provides an in-depth review of the journeys of those diagnosed with PD, advocates, and caregivers. The emphasis is on the importance of slowing the progression of PD through sports. In providing this information, the hope is that until the cure is discovered, we can provide valuable information, avenues, and information covering multiple sports and their effect on those battling PD. Also noted are sports, which need more research and lack these results.

Finally, if those battling PD know about various exercises, fitness, and improving health through specific sports, then progression can be maintained and slowed down. This could result in longer health spans and maintaining the ability to allow the reader to combat PD until the cure is found. In addition, providing multiple sport analysis will benefit so many to not be discouraged if they do not enjoy or participate in one sport because so many others exist today which through awareness can be beneficial.

We have assembled a variety of experts worldwide to share their experiences, research, and evidence through their journeys that, in many cases, through specific sports, the progression of PD can be slowed down, and in many cases, allows each to live a productive life and maintain longer coping mechanisms.
