Common Pain Points for people living with parkinson’s disease.
Loss of Mobility and Rigidity: Parkinson’s Disease often leads to muscle stiffness and reduced mobility, making it difficult to move freely or perform everyday tasks. This can cause frustration and reduce independence.
Balance and Coordination Concerns: Many people with Parkinson’s experience issues with balance and coordination, leading to an increased risk of falls. This fear of falling can discourage movement and lead to a more sedentary lifestyle, exacerbating symptoms.
Slowness of Movement (Bradykinesia): Slowed movement can make routine activities, like getting dressed or walking, much harder and time-consuming. This can be mentally exhausting, impacting both physical health and emotional well-being.
Fatigue and Reduced Strength: Due to the progressive nature of Parkinson’s Disease, many clients experience muscle weakness and fatigue, making it harder to stay active and maintain physical strength.
