The Fight Against Parkinson’s Disease

Megan Kane-Mangol and Kris Zwemer talk with us about their company, Harmony in Motion, a speech and physical therapy clinic in Carlisle treating individuals with Parkinson’s Disease through a holistic wellness base model. In this episode they discuss the different methodologies they use to help PWP increase balance, coordination motor control, speech, breathing and swallowing, all skills that are compromised by the neurodegenerative nature of PD. Kris and Megan also discuss some of the early symptoms of PD and the importance of building a support network sooner rather than later. Symptoms can be managed and in many cases held off with early education, treatment and therapy. Whether you have an official diagnosis of PD or you think you may be seeing signs and symptoms, get educated about what can help you before the disease progresses.

Kris and Megan are committed to one-on-one therapy that supports individuals in a solutions focused environment. Visit Harmony in Motion on the web at https://www.harmonyinmotiontherapy.com/.
