Parkinson's Disease Treatment in Delhi

It is well-known that Parkinson's patients can benefit from any exercise. Physical therapy is crucial. Why? Why? These are some of the things that a therapist might work on:

Parkinson's disease is a progressive nervous system disorder that affects movement. Its symptoms worsen as your condition progresses over time.

A Physiotherapist will advise, educate, and support in maintaining fitness levels and good posture to help Parkinson's 

Amplitude Training

LSVT BIG is a specific type of physical therapy that treats Parkinson's disease. LSVT stands for Lee Silverman Voice Therapy. LSVT Lou therapy to amplify the voice. Dr. Gholam Sarwar says that LSVT LOUD is meant to assist patients with Parkinson's by increasing what we call 'amplitude in movement'.

LSVT BIG is a physical exercise that involves exaggerated movements such as arm swings and high steps.

This is a way to strengthen the muscles and slow down hypokinesia (the smaller, more shaky movements that occur with Parkinson's disease). Ask your doctor or physical therapist to discuss LSVT BIG.

Reciprocal patterns

Reciprocal movement is side-to-side or left-to-right movements. For example, swinging your arms and walking while simultaneously taking steps. These patterns may be affected by Parkinson's disease. Recumbent bikes (a stationary bicycle in which you sit in a reclined posture) and elliptical machines (where your arms and legs are used) may help strengthen reciprocal patterns.

Dr. Gholam Sarwar suggests that you walk on your own. Keep in mind your arm swings. You may find it helpful to chant or sing to maintain the rhythm.

Balance work

According to Dr. Gholam Sarwar, the average balance combines what you see (visual feedback), how you feel the ground under you, and your inner ear (which helps with orientation).

Parkinson's disease may cause your balance system to become unstable. This can make it difficult to walk in public and crowded places. Practice walking (gait training) may be helpful.

A physical therapist should always guide balance exercises designed to improve balance. They can help you understand balance issues and show you how to compensate.

Flexibility and stretching

Parkinson's patients often develop tight hip flexors, hamstrings, and calf muscles. It's essential to stretch frequently throughout the day to counter stiffness. Ask a Parkinson's specialist trainer to help you.

Strength Training

Strength training is essential for all ages, as muscle weakness naturally occurs with age. Dr. Gholam Sarwar says that muscle weakness can be a more significant problem in Parkinson's patients.

A therapist may suggest resistance exercises using dumbbells or a thick rubber band. This will depend on the stage of your disease. She says that pool-based classes can be beneficial, as they use the water's resistance for muscle strengthening.
