Living Well - Keeping Active
Online Session via Zoom (map)
Wed 19th Aug 2020, 12:00pm to 1:00pm (1 hour)
Getting regular exercise is important when you are living with Parkinson’s. This session will help you to find ways of staying active and how to keep safe when exercising.
Parkinson’s is a life-changing condition but with the right supports in place, most people are able to Live Well with Parkinson’s for many years. That being said, life can throw curve balls. This year’s has been the COVID-19 pandemic.
For those living with a chronic condition such as Parkinson’s, coronavirus restrictions have resulted in many changes to the way they manage their condition. Medical appointments have gone online and exercise classes cancelled. This has led to increased levels of anxiety.
Those caring for a person with Parkinson’s have also been impacted by the changes, particularly due to the even more stringent travel and aged care visitation restrictions imposed since July.
Anyone with Parkinson’s, or caring for a person with Parkinson’s, are welcome to join our Living Well presentations in August:
