Please keep in mind: Our staff of exercise specialists does include physical therapists, along with certified personal trainers and certified group fitness instructors. All of our PD exercise specialists are also PWR!Moves Certified Professionals, which means that they have additional training and expertise specifically in helping people with PD increase and maintain physical fitness and health. Although you may receive exercise and wellness strategies from a physical therapist during your wellness consultation, you will not receive skilled physical therapy. Your PD exercise specialist will not be “diagnosing” or “treating” specific impairments associated with your Parkinson disease, but rather, we will be providing you with general strategies and coaching known to improve the general health and well-being of people living with Parkinson disease.
If, during your health screening, we discover that you may need medical interventions to help monitor your PD, and that you might benefit from the guidance of a licensed physical therapist (or other medical interventionists) in your state, we may recommend that you see a licensed practitioner.
