For muscle fatigue / extreme exercise intolerance, try NMN (Nicotinamide Mononucleotide)! Even at 250mg, felt fatigue leaving my body. At 500mg, felt like I had a new body.

Is there any research on using a HALO headset to exercise?

What about having trouble getting to a physical therapist, because of driving?

This guy is a scam artist. He charges $50 to Parkinson individuals for recipes and articles. Not cool at all. All of this information exists in the internet. Looking for fame.

I find exercise makes my medication work less

My husband is in VA Home with advanced Parkinsonism Disease. They want to end his PT and OT saying he's advanced as far as he can go. He has very little mobility.
