Get started today with a custom plan of care.

A Multidisciplinary Approach to Parkinson’s

Parkinson’s Disease affects more than just movement—it can impact speech, cognition, and daily function. Because every symptom is connected, our treatment is too. We offer a coordinated, whole-person approach that includes physical, occupational, and speech therapy, along with advanced technologies like Neubie and Theracycle.

Each patient receives an individualized therapy plan that may include:

LSVT BIG and LSVT LOUD: Targeted Parkinson’s Training

We are proud to offer LSVT BIG and LSVT LOUD, two specialty programs developed specifically for individuals with Parkinson’s Disease.

LSVT BIG focuses on retraining movement patterns by encouraging large, purposeful motions. This improves walking speed, reduces shuffling, and enhances balance.

LSVT LOUD addresses vocal intensity, pitch, and clarity. Parkinson’s often causes speech to become soft or monotone—this program helps patients speak with more strength and confidence.

Both are delivered one-on-one by certified therapists and can be integrated into broader therapy plans depending on the patient’s goals.

Neubie Therapy for Neuromuscular Re-Education

Parkinson’s can cause movement hesitation, rigidity, and discomfort that interfere with daily function. Neubie is an FDA-cleared electrical stimulation device that helps retrain neuromuscular control during active movement. Unlike traditional stimulation, Neubie engages patients in real-time, promoting faster and more complete improvements.

This therapy is especially helpful for reducing stiffness, improving gait mechanics, enhancing motor control, and encouraging neuroplastic changes. By integrating Neubie into a comprehensive plan, patients often experience more fluid movement and improved confidence in their mobility.

Theracycle: Motor-Assisted Cycling for Strength and Endurance

Theracycle provides motor-assisted cycling therapy, allowing patients with Parkinson’s to engage in forced exercise—a method shown in research to help manage motor symptoms and improve brain-muscle coordination.

Benefits of Theracycle therapy include:

  • Cardiovascular endurance

  • Increased lower body strength

  • Improved limb coordination

  • Reduced rigidity during and after exercise

This therapy is ideal for those who may struggle with conventional workouts but still want to move and make progress safely.

Physical Therapy for Strength and Balance

Physical Therapy is a foundational part of Parkinson’s treatment. Our therapists work closely with each patient to restore balance, improve walking ability, and prevent falls. Sessions focus on building strength in weakened muscle groups, improving joint flexibility, and retraining posture and core control.

We also teach practical strategies to reduce fall risk and maintain safe, independent mobility. As Parkinson’s symptoms evolve, we continue adjusting the therapy plan to address new challenges and help patients remain active.

Occupational Therapy for Everyday Independence

Parkinson’s affects more than mobility—it can interfere with basic self-care, home safety, and personal routines. Occupational Therapy plays a vital role in helping patients preserve independence in their daily lives.

This may include:

  • Hand coordination exercises for dressing, writing, and cooking

  • Safety recommendations for fall prevention at home

  • Energy conservation techniques to reduce fatigue

We also educate family members and caregivers, ensuring that patients have support beyond the clinic.

Speech Therapy for Communication and Swallowing

Many individuals with Parkinson’s struggle with soft speech, slurred articulation, or difficulty swallowing. Our speech-language pathologists create plans that help patients preserve their voice and eat safely.

Speech Therapy may involve:

  • Breath support and projection training

  • Enunciation and fluency work

  • Swallowing safety assessments and strategies

Improving communication means staying socially active and emotionally connected—both key elements in managing Parkinson’s.
