Steadier mornings with Parkinson's

Cueing-based training reduced freezing episodes and made getting out of a chair predictable again.

Client in Northbrook, age 74

Client background

A 74-year-old with Parkinson's disease living with his daughter in Northbrook.

Baseline challenges

Program overview

Rhythmic and visual cueing, amplitude-focused movement, chair transfer practice and a home layout review with the family.

Measurable outcomes
