During our July 10 webinar, “Under Pressure: Stress and Parkinson’s,” we heard from Dr. Rick Helmich about whether a link exists between stress and the onset of Parkinson’s, how stress can impact individuals living with Parkinson’s and their care partners, current therapies and non-therapeutic approaches to stress management, and current research. Kim Mortson also shared about her Parkinson’s journey and steps she’s taken to manage the impact that stress can have on her health.

Parkinson Canada is happy to offer programs such as this webinar and the Every Victory Counts – Canadian edition manual at no cost to the Parkinson’s community thanks to the generosity of our wonderful donors.
