Parkinson's Care

Parkinson's disease is a progressive neurological disorder that affects movement, balance, coordination, and daily activities. Symptoms often develop gradually and may worsen over time, making early diagnosis and proper management essential.

Our Parkinson's Care program focuses on comprehensive evaluation, symptom management, medication optimization, and long-term support to help patients maintain independence and improve their quality of life.

Understanding Parkinson's Disease

Parkinson's disease occurs when nerve cells in the brain responsible for producing dopamine gradually deteriorate. Dopamine is essential for smooth and coordinated muscle movements. As dopamine levels decrease, patients may experience movement-related difficulties and other non-motor symptoms.

Early Warning Signs of Parkinson's Disease

Many symptoms appear gradually and may be overlooked in the early stages.

  • Tremors or shaking, especially in the hands
  • Slowness of movement (Bradykinesia)
  • Muscle stiffness and rigidity
  • Difficulty maintaining balance
  • Changes in handwriting
  • Reduced facial expressions
  • Soft or low voice
  • Difficulty walking or shuffling gait

Beyond Movement: Non-Motor Symptoms

Parkinson's disease can affect more than movement. Many patients also experience:

  • Sleep disturbances
  • Anxiety and depression
  • Memory and concentration difficulties
  • Fatigue
  • Constipation
  • Loss of sense of smell
  • Mood changes

Who Is at Risk?

Although the exact cause of Parkinson's disease remains unclear, certain factors may increase the risk:

  • Increasing age
  • Family history of Parkinson's disease
  • Exposure to environmental toxins
  • Previous head injuries
  • Male gender
