About Parkinson's
People with Parkinson’s can have a good life with the help of exercise and therapy. Learning to concentrate on these tasks helps manage the symptoms of Parkinson’s. It helps maintain balance, mobility, and activities of everyday life. Singing can improve respiration and swallowing by strengthening those muscles. Parkinson’s can cause hypophonia, which is low voice volume. Therapeutic singing can improve these symptoms and enhance voice volume. Communication impairment is a common symptom among Parkinson’s patients. Therapeutic singing can help preserve speech while exercising those muscles.
