Introducing A Closer Look

Information, facts and practical guidance to help those impacted by Parkinson’s live life to the fullest.


In today’s hyper-connected world, you can find an almost infinite amount of information about Parkinson’s disease (PD) in every corner of the internet and on every social media outlet. It can be hard to know what to read, what to believe, and most importantly, what changes you should (or shouldn’t) implement in your life in response to the information that is out there.

If this is your experience, then A Closer Look was designed for you. Through this blog, I will address both timely and timeless topics related to the disease and aim to explain them to people with PD, their care partners (and everyone else who is interested) in a way that’s easy to understand and relevant to your lives. We will also focus on practical tips to help you determine how to best apply the information to your PD journey.

We’ll post weekly updates to keep you ‘in the know’ and we’ve got some really exciting and interesting topics lined up for you, including:

  • Parkinson’s disease, Parkinson’s disease dementia, Dementia with Lewy Bodies, Lewy Body Dementia– what does it all mean?
  • Understanding Stem Cell Therapy
  • The Promise of Telemedicine
  • Improving Quality of Life Through Exercise
  • And so much more!

A new blog post will be shared every Tuesday. Keep an eye out for some guest bloggers as well!
