Parkinson's Disease Rehabilitation in Hallandale Beach

Therapy for walking, balance, movement amplitude, transfers, and daily activities with Parkinson’s disease. Your plan connects repeated movement practice with the routines you want to manage more independently.

Care in English and Spanish

Parkinson’s therapy for everyday movement.

We begin with how Parkinson’s affects your movement today, then focus on the activities and support that matter most to you.

Ask a Question

Walking and freezing

Gait rhythm, stride length, turning, and strategies for the moments when your feet feel stuck to the floor.

Balance and falls

Postural reactions, weight shifting, and safer movement in the situations where losing balance is most likely.

Movement initiation and amplitude

Starting movement more easily and keeping it large enough to be useful, since Parkinson’s tends to make movement smaller than it feels.

Posture and transfers

Standing taller, and getting in and out of chairs, beds and cars with less effort and more safety.

Speech and swallowing

Voice volume, clarity and swallowing safety, when speech-language therapy is part of the plan.

Handwriting and daily tasks

Dressing, eating, handwriting and the household routines that have become slower or harder.

Movement practice for your everyday priorities.

Goals follow your priorities and your stage. This program works alongside your neurologist — it does not replace that care.

  • Walk with a steadier rhythm

    Gait practice in the parallel bars and on the treadmill, with body-weight support available when balance is not yet reliable.

  • Understand your balance

    Computerized balance testing may help the team understand your responses and guide appropriate practice.

  • Keep movements big

    Repeated large-amplitude practice for reaching, turning, standing and the movements that shrink first.

  • Communication and swallowing

    Speech, voice and swallowing work with our multilingual speech-language pathologist when it belongs in the plan.

Your first Parkinson’s rehabilitation evaluation.

We start with your diagnosis, your medication schedule and what has changed recently — then ask what you most want to keep doing.

  1. Review the medical picture

    Bring your neurology notes, medication times, precautions and any therapy history. Medication timing matters for what we can measure.

  2. Assess how you move now

    We look at walking, turning, balance, transfers, posture, strength, and speech or swallowing where relevant.

  3. Agree the next step

    The team explains which disciplines should be involved, how often, and what we will re-measure.

Questions families often ask

Talk with us about your questions

When in the disease should therapy start?

There is no single right moment. Many people are referred when walking, balance or daily tasks start changing, but the evaluation is useful earlier too, because it gives us a baseline to compare against later.

Does the medication schedule affect the sessions?

It can. Movement often differs between doses, so tell us your schedule and we will book you at a time that reflects how you usually function.

Can family or caregivers take part?

Yes. Family education can cover safe walking and transfers, cueing strategies for freezing, home setup, and what to do after a fall.

What is movement-amplitude practice?

It is practice with deliberately larger movements, selected around your abilities and goals. The clinic’s Parkinson’s program includes repeated movement practice for walking, balance, and coordination.

Is the program in Spanish?

Yes. Care is available in English and Spanish, including speech-language therapy when it is part of your plan.
