Evidence Based

Based on The Parkinson's Foundation Outcomes Project, "people with PD who start exercising earlier in their disease course for a minimum of 2.5 hours per week experienced a slowed decline in quality of life compared to those who start later. Establishing early exercise habits is essential to overall disease management".
According to a recent 2024 study published in NPJ Parkinson's Disease, individuals who adhered to a 6 month intensive exercise program demonstrated an increase in dopamine transporter within the basal ganglia suggesting improved functionality in available neurons after exercise.
