Parkinsons Exercise And Wellness Center

The Parkinson's Exercise and Wellness Center's mission is to provide the healing hands that every caregiver needs to be "Fit2CareTM". It is a unique fitness and therapy-based program created specifically for caregivers of people living with Parkinson's Disease and Parkinson's Plus. Designed to build mentally, emotionally and physicially strong caregivers who can confidently perform the demanding tasks of caring for their loved ones, Fit2Care is open to all family members of someone diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease or Parkinson's Plus. In addition, some of the folks have created a group called PD Partners that meet the first Friday of the month for coffee and camaraderie. We have continued to seek continuing education for coaches and staff to maintain the highest level of training for Parkinson's specific exercise. Additionally, we have opened our program for more students interest in learning about neurological disorders like PD. Our community based exercise programs allow a unique experience for students to interact with healthy, active and capable clients with PD. The student feedback has been highly positive and demonstrates an increased desire to serve peiple with PD in their future medical practice.
