Parkinson’s disease is a brain disease which affects the basal ganglia, an area important for co-ordination and initiation of movements.The effect of this is reduced movements(slower and smaller)and other secondary problems like fear of falling,a soft voice,weakness,stiffness,sensory changes,visual changes,small writing,and cognitive changes.
The challenges of Parkinson’s disease are many; not only for people with the disease, but for family members and carers as well. Falls,depression, reduced ability to be independent are all concerns.
