Parkinson’s Yoga is adapted yoga designed to support people living with Parkinson’s disease (PD). The focus isn’t flexibility for its own sake—it’s about movement confidence, balance, breathing, and calm.
Parkinson Yoga Therapy
Parkinson Yoga Therapy is a gentle and supportive yoga-based approach designed to help individuals living with Parkinson’s disease improve mobility, balance, coordination, and quality of life.
