Exercise in conjunction with medication is one of the best things that can
be done to counteract the negative physical effects of Parkinson's Disease.
Traditional or conventional exercise programs do not always carry-over well
or meet the specific needs of dealing with PD symptoms.
This DVD includes demonstrations of movement techniques, three levels of
exercise programs to simply follow along and much more! PD is a movement
disorder that is unique. Due to this fact, the video/DVD format is the best
way to illustrate movement techniques and exercise with actual persons with
PD. The book includes additional useful information that is best presented
with illustrations and text.

The book is due out in December 2008.
A percentage of Proceeds for each DVD will go back the NPF (National

This book/DVD is truly unique in emphasizing the importance of conscious
feed back to modify everyday movement. I hope all patients with Parkinson's

The DVD organized and developed by Kevin Lockette PT is a real jewel of
emphasizing the elements that are truly important to a PD person. It has
helped me immeasurably to regain some stability and balance because of my no
longer functioning automatic pilot.
