Massage and parkinson disease

massage and PD patient

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dear Doctor,

Parkinson's disease destroys dopamine-producing cells, therefore patients have dramatically low-levels of the neurotransmitter.
.
A simple massage can significantly improve the quality of life of Parkinson's sufferers, say experts. Researchers at the University of Miami Touch Research Institute have found that massage helps patients' to sleep as well as improving their ability to perform normal day-to-day activities.

Best regards
