Introducing The Parkinsex Game
Parkinson’s disease can affect many aspects of a relationship, including physical and emotional intimacy. Symptoms such as fatigue, stiffness, changes in movement, and shifts in mood can make it more difficult for partners to connect in the ways they once did. Over time, couples may find themselves feeling distant — even when they deeply care for one another. As a result, a few years ago APDA created ParkinSex — a unique kit and booklet designed to help people reconnect and rebuild intimacy in ways that feel right for them. Due to the overwhelming response to the original ParkinSex kit, we have now created a companion resource — a ParkinSex card game!
ParkinSex: The Game is a fun and low-pressure way to spend time together that can help foster connection and intimacy. It was designed to help couples gently rebuild connection with cards that prompt playful activities to spark conversation, encourage closeness, and help partners explore intimacy in ways that feel comfortable and meaningful. By creating a playful space for communication, the game can help couples overcome common barriers and rediscover connection. And although the game comes with an explanation of how to play, it’s ok to make up your own rules to the game as well! However you play it, enjoy the time together and have fun with the prompts!
