Delay the Disease -Exercise and Parkinson's Disease (Book)
Delay the Disease Exercise program is demonstrating significant and breathtaking reversal of disability through these dedicated exercise routines. Increasing evidence suggests that these dedicated Parkinson's exercises actually recruit new brain regions to perform tasks that were otherwise lost due to the previous nerve cell damage. These exercises appear to increase brain levels of specific, powerful chemicals known as growth factors. It is possible that some of these growth factors may actually work to restore sick or damaged nerve cells back to a state of improved health. David and Jackie have perfected the use of these revolutionary routines to enhance the lives of people with PD, improving them physically, mentally, and emotionally. Lawrence W. Elmer, MD, Ph.
