Exercise for Parkinson's

The exercises will be offered twice a week by resident volunteer Jeannette Mercier.

The treatment of Parkinson's disease is based on several factors, particularly the integration of an exercise program. These promote the maintenance of independence and help to maximize the effect of the antiparkinsonian medication, which provides a better quality of life.

The functions and benefits of exercise are huge. In particular, it allows:

  • improve muscle flexibility,
  • range of motion
  • the coordination,
  • the balance,
  • elocution and dexterity,
  • to strengthen the extensor muscles, which among other things help keep the back straight,
  • to act on stiffness and postural problems,
  • to reduce fatigue,
  • promote muscle relaxation and relieve cramps,
  • to act on stress, depression, insomnia, constipation.
  • Studies also suggest that exercise may slow the progression of Parkinson's disease.

English movie: Nights in Rodanthe

2008 · Romance · 97mins

Director : George C. Wolfe

Actors : Diane Lane, Richard Gere, James Franco


Lane stars as Adrienne Willis, a woman with her life in chaos, who retreats to the tiny coastal town of Rodanthe, in the Outer Banks of North Carolina, to tend to a friend s inn for the weekend. Here she hopes to find the tranquility she so desperately needs to rethink the conflicts surrounding her — a wayward husband who has asked to come home, and a teen-aged daughter who resents her every decision. Almost as soon as Adrienne gets to Rodanthe, a major storm is forecast and a guest named Dr. Paul Flanner (Gere) arrives. The only guest at the inn, Flanner is not on a weekend escape but rather is there to face his own crisis of conscience. Now, with the storm closing in, the two turn to each other for comfort and, in one magical weekend, set in motion a life-changing romance that will resonate throughout the rest of their lives
