Webinar: Wednesday, July 30th at 2pm: Climate, Weather & Parkinson's Disease Factors such as climate, weather, altitude, and geography can all significantly influence Parkinson's symptoms. People with PD may be particularly sensitive to the temperature extremes of hot or cold climates, since they sometimes can’t regulate their body temperature well. The ability to exercise can also be impacted by the temperature or weather. The number of daylight hours can impact mood and sleep, which are critical for the well-being of someone with PD. Movement disorders physician Dr. Eleni Okeanis Vaou will join us on for an insightful discussion regarding the connection between climate and PD – we hope you’ll be there with us! Click to Register.
