    Exercise, the Medication for Parkinson's Disease (Part 2)

Mah Shi Min, Principal Physiotherapist at Sengkang General Hospital hosts this episode. She is joined by Sylvia Liew, Principal Physiotherapist at NTUC HEALTH. Sylvia has vast experience working with individuals who have Parkinson’s Disease.  She explores how the condition can be managed medically, surgically and most importantly, with exercise.  Head to our YouTube Channel to watch the full episode with Sylvia's slides.  We apologize for the spoken error at 0:11:16 of the 2nd video. It should be: "Hypotension is.. a drop on systolic blood pressure 20 or MORE (instead of less), or diastolic blood pressure 10 or more, after 3 minutes of changing position."
