IM & Parkinson’s: Preserving Function & Independence

Parkinson’s disease is a movement disorder that is chronic and progressive. It is believed that there are at least one million Americans currently living with Parkinson’s and there are an additional 40,000 individuals diagnosed in the United States every year.

Although there is no known cure, the individuals diagnosed and their loved ones are highly motivated to access services that can enhance independence and quality of life. The Interactive Metronome has been used successfully as part of the therapy services offered for both newly diagnosed patients as well as those who are experiencing significant functional declines.
