Parkinson’s Disease is a progressive neurological disorder that affects movement, coordination, and daily functioning. While it cannot yet be cured, timely and targeted interventions can help slow disease progression, enhance mobility, and preserve independence.
At Plexus Neuro and Cell Research Centre, we combine medical expertise with innovative rehabilitation to empower patients to live more confidently and comfortably with Parkinson’s.
Managing Motor Symptoms Effectively
Motor symptoms such as tremors, stiffness, and slowed movements can make everyday tasks challenging. Managing them involves improving coordination, flexibility, and control. Techniques that use rhythmic or repetitive movements help refine walking patterns, while specific exercises designed for daily tasks build independence. Regular stretching and balance-focused routines ease stiffness, improve posture, and support smoother motion.
Improving Mobility and Gait
Maintaining smooth and steady movement is essential for individuals with Parkinson’s. Targeted mobility exercises help enhance balance, leg strength, and posture, reducing the risk of falls. Practicing step-based drills or walking routines improves coordination and helps minimize freezing episodes. Supportive tools, along with movement cues, can help start and sustain motion more effectively, promoting confidence and independence in daily activities.
Hand and Fine Motor Skills Enhancement
Parkinson’s often affects precision and control in hand movements. Regular exercises to strengthen the fingers, wrists, and palms can improve dexterity and flexibility. Activities such as finger taps, grip strengthening, and small-object handling maintain control and range of motion. These help individuals perform personal and household tasks more comfortably and efficiently.
Speech and Communication Support
Speech and voice changes are common, making clear communication more difficult. Strengthening the muscles used for speaking and swallowing helps maintain clarity and volume. Consistent vocal practice improves pronunciation and confidence during conversations. For added assistance, communication tools or devices can further support smoother interactions and better connection with others.
Tailored Exercise Programs
Physical activity plays a vital role in maintaining movement and balance. Exercises that combine endurance, strength, and flexibility work best to support daily function. Gentle, low-impact routines enhance control and reduce stiffness, while balance-oriented practices help prevent falls. A structured and personalized plan, designed with expert guidance, ensures steady progress and supports overall mobility and confidence.
Practicing Self-Management
Daily symptom management depends on consistency and awareness. Incorporating movement, balance, and speech exercises into a regular routine helps maintain progress. Monitoring changes and adjusting habits based on individual needs improves outcomes. By following a well-structured plan and staying active, individuals can retain independence and manage symptoms effectively.
Advanced Parkinson’s Treatments at Plexus
At Plexus, our Parkinson’s treatment programs are designed around the individual—addressing both motor and non-motor symptoms. Every therapy plan is customized to the patient’s needs and focuses on functional recovery, not just symptom control.
1. Physiotherapy:
Physiotherapy focuses on improving mobility, balance, and posture through evidence-based exercises. Targeted techniques like gait training, resistance exercises, and rhythmic movement retraining help reduce rigidity, tremors, and slowness of movement. The goal is to restore physical function and reduce fall risk.
2. Occupational Therapy:
This therapy empowers patients to regain independence in daily activities. Our occupational therapists design task-specific exercises that enhance hand-eye coordination, fine motor skills, and dexterity. Adaptive strategies and assistive tools are also introduced to simplify daily routines.
3. Speech Therapy:
Speech and swallowing difficulties are common in Parkinson’s. Our Speech Therapy sessions help strengthen vocal muscles, improve articulation and clarity, and address swallowing issues. With regular practice, patients can communicate effectively and reduce aspiration risks.
4. Aquatic Therapy:
Aquatic Therapy offers a low-impact environment for patients to exercise without strain. Water buoyancy helps ease joint stiffness, while gentle resistance improves strength, flexibility, and coordination—making it ideal for those with advanced motor symptoms.
5. Cell Therapy:
One of the most advanced treatments at Plexus is Autologous Mesenchymal Cell Therapy, where stem cells are extracted from the patient’s own bone marrow. This non-surgical therapy aims to repair damaged neurons, improve dopamine activity, and slow disease progression—without the adverse effects of long-term medications. It has shown remarkable results in enhancing mobility and reducing tremors.
