Breaking Down Bradykinesia

Bradykinesia (slowness of movement) is a common symptom of Parkinson’s, however, there is more to this symptom than just being slow. Join us and Alfonso Fasano, MD, PhD, a neurologist and co-director of the Surgical Program for Movement Disorders at Toronto Western Hospital, as he breaks down the difference between slow, low amplitude movement (hypokinesia) and no movement (akinesia).

Parkinson & Movement Disorder Alliance is a nonprofit organization providing people with Parkinson's and other movement disorders as well as their care partners opportunities to learn, live life more fully and connect with other. We believe you are MORE than a disease!
