Latest Evidence Based Effective Interventions for Patients with Parkinson’s Disease Carole Lewis, DPT, GCS, GTCCS, MPA, MSG, PhD, FSOAE, FAPTA
This one-hour course is jam packed with effective interventions for patients with Parkinson’s Disease. (PD) Dr. Carole Lewis briefly covers her favorite examination tools for this
population and then dedicates the rest of the course to converting the latest research to clinical
interventions that can be used immediately. Interventions for gait and balance as well as endurance and weakness issues are addressed.
You’ll receive over 10 different protocols and over 30 different exercises to use with your patients with PD that are all evidence based.
Learn about high intensity boot camp, a progressive trunk mobility program, unique and new interventions to improve gait, balance, endurance, function and much more.
Dr. Carole Lewis gives you the latest information and not only demonstrates but shows multiple videos of many of the interventions.
