With special guest Teresa Baker, PT, DPT

Join us May 23  at 1:00 pm ET / 10:00 am PT for Let’s Keep Moving With APDA: FAQs About Exercise & Physical Therapy.  In this new episode, hosted by special guest Teresa Baker, PT, DPT, Clinical Research Physical Therapist, from Boston University and the APDA National Rehabilitation Resource Center for Parkinson’s Disease, we will answer some of the most common questions about physical therapy as a treatment for PD symptoms as well as some of the challenges they most frequently see among their PD patients. Teresa will answer audience questions live during the program.

It can be difficult to understand how research that is being done now in a lab will benefit people with PD in “real life” so the American Parkinson Disease Association (APDA) is bringing you this special episode of Dr. Gilbert Hosts with APDA-funded researchers as guest speakers. Register now to for this APDA webinar, taking place on Monday, May 1, 12pm PT, to hear first-hand about their current research projects and their potential to help people with PD.
