Parkinson's disease:- Julie Jones Exercise & Physical activity; Getting started & staying active

Parkinson's Disease Podcasts by No Silver Bullet

We are all becoming very aware of the huge benefits of exercise with PD but where do you start and what do you need to do?
Julie Jones is a very experienced physiotherapist with a specialist interest in Parkinson’s and so is perfectly qualified to guide PwP to get more active and feel the benefits of exercise. This is an excellent and natural follow-up to the presentation by Prof Bas Bloem, also available on this channel and highly recommended if you have not watched it.
