The American Parkinson Disease Association (APDA) presented a three-part webinar series “Let’s Keep Moving with APDA” last summer 2020 on different aspects of balance.  The third in the series, “Evidence-based Treatment to Improve Balance,” featured Tamara DeAngelis, DPT, a physical therapist at Boston University’s Center for Neurorehabilitation. She spoke about different balance treatments, and how they impact the different balance symptoms.  We at Stanford Parkinson’s Community Outreach listened to the webinar and are sharing our notes.
