"This is an article about the potential role of exercise in Parkinson's. There is increasing evidence of a therapeutic role of exercise in managing Parkinson's. At Predict PD, we are particularly interested in physical activity because two separate studies have shown that physical activity may reduce the risk of Parkinson's in the future. However, further work must be done on both physical activity during Parkinson's and preceding Parkinson's to confirm these observations"
