Parkinson’s disease
Our approach to Parkinson’s disease care
What you need to know about Parkinson’s
Parkinson’s is an enormously complex disease that originates in the brain. There is not yet one concrete answer to its origins. It is well known that a lack of dopamine in the brain causes many of the problems and symptoms. Dopamine is a messenger substance in the brain that is important for movement and thinking. That deficiency results from the death of dopamine-producing brain cells in the so-called “black nucleus” of the brain. This is the middle part of the brain and belongs to the central nervous system.
The symptoms and problems caused by Parkinson’s vary from person to person. Think trembling of hands and legs, slower movement and stiffness of muscles. When the disease has been around longer, posture and balance problems may develop. Especially for people who have been struggling with the disease for some time, we offer our specialized care.
How we treat Parkinson’s
Therefore, the key to successful treatment lies in regulating stimuli. With our intensive week of treatment, we recalibrate the different parts of the brain so that there is neither too much nor too little stimulation. This restores the nervous system’s ability to perform its functions properly, causing the symptoms to disappear.
How we treat Parkinson’s
Therefore, the key to successful treatment lies in regulating stimuli. With our intensive treatment week, we coordinate the different parts of the brain again so that there is no over- or under-stimulation. This restores the nervous system’s ability to perform its functions properly, causing the symptoms to disappear.
Your road to recovery
Step 1
The Functional Neurological Examination (FNE)
You share your symptoms with us, prompting us to ask relevant questions and conduct a thorough Neurological Examination. This process allows us to assess whether our treatment is well-suited to your needs.
Step 2
Advanced Machine Testing (quantification)
Based on Step 1, we determine what tests are necessary to quantify the underlying cause of the symptoms. To do this, we use a range of computer-controlled equipment.
Step 3
Rehabilitation week (in 5 days)
We address the problems. Through an individual program specifically tailored to your problems, we bring back function during an intensive week of treatment.
Step 4
Aftercare
After the 5-day intensive treatment week, we will give you homework assignments. These are exercises that further promote your recovery. We are happy to keep an eye on these developments with you.
What does ABC expect from you?
It is not possible to offer this treatment in parts because the intensity of the treatment is precisely the key to success. Therefore, we expect our clients to have a full week scheduled for treatment. So we ask you to invest a week to enjoy a life after that.
