Parkinson's Support Group
Bravera Health Seven Rivers Outpatient Rehab is pleased to offer a monthly Parkinson’s Support Group.
The Parkinson’s Support Group is for anyone that wants to know to learn more about Parkinson's disease. Whether you have been diagnosed with Parkinson’s, know someone who has, or are just interested in gaining more knowledge, all are welcome! The goal of the support group is to educate as many people about Parkinson’s as possible.
The support group meets on the third Thursday of the month and includes guest speakers, dances, exercise classes and crafts as well as Table Talks. Table Talks give members the opportunity to converse and to ask and answer questions of one another. Some topics include available medications, doctors that provide specialized care for people with Parkinson’s, classes available and services offered by Bravera Health Seven Rivers to help keep people moving such as physical, occupational and speech therapy, dietary advice and more.
