Total Parkinson’s, a Total Healthworks program, is an evidenced-based wellness program developed by Jackie Russell and David Zid (formerly with Delay the Disease). This exercise program empowers people with Parkinson’s disease to live better, experience new levels of hope by optimizing function and restoring independence.
The goal of the program is to retrain the mind and body. Participants report improvement in quality of life, regained ability to successfully manage the disease, and regain control. This program targets daily functional challenges and symptom-specific fitness agendas. Exercise plans are adapted to all levels of the disease, valuable to newly diagnosed and progressed states alike.
Classes are offered on Mondays and Wednesdays at 11am. Participation in these classes are free for Members. Non-members may attend by purchasing a day pass.
Personal training is available with trainers who have Parkinson’s specific knowledge and experience. This is recommended to those who prefer or need individualized attention, want a workout that is custom made for them, and/or are not available at the scheduled class times.
Parkinson’s patients are also welcome to explore our programs through MyFit Rx. With a doctor’s referral this program is tailored to each individual’s condition and abilities. Click here for more details.
