Скачать или смотреть Brain Gym: Training the Mind in Parkinson’s Care

When we talk about Parkinson’s, we often think about movement. But Parkinson’s also affects the brain — how we think, focus, remember, and respond.

That’s why Brain Gym is an important part of our Befriending Parkinson’s program.

Brain Gym uses simple, guided activities that help keep the brain active and engaged. These exercises support attention, memory, coordination, and mental flexibility. Over time, this can make daily tasks feel easier, improve confidence, and reduce mental fatigue.

Many people with Parkinson’s notice that they feel slower in their thinking or find it harder to focus. Brain Gym helps gently train these skills again — in a calm, enjoyable, and supportive environment.

Just like the body needs movement, the brain also needs regular exercise.
At DMH, Brain Gym sessions are designed to be safe, fun, and meaningful — helping patients stay mentally active, feel more confident, and stay connected with themselves and others.

Because caring for Parkinson’s is not just about the body.

It’s also about caring for the mind.
