  • If you want to level up and continue improving your movements and balance, these daily standing Parkinson’s disease exercises are essential. Now that you’re getting stronger and your balance is improving, it’s time to transition to standing exercises. Whether you are a person with Parkinson's disease or a caregiver or a therapist, these exercises are perfect for recovery and awareness of the disease.
    In this video, Nathan, from "Skills and Wellness" will guide you through a series of exercises to improve standing strength, balance and coordination while standing up.
    First exercise is ankle rocking. Rock your ankles back-and-forth 10 times.
    Second exercise is marching in place. Just match and making sure you bring your knees as high as possible 10 times.
    3rd exercise is stepping forward and back. Scoot forward from your chair so that you have enough space to step back. Do one leg at a time. Step forward as far as you can and then step back as far as you can. Do this 10 times.
    4th exercise is clapping up. Keep your arm straight reach back then bring both hands together clapping in front of your face or higher 10.
    Fifth exercise is elbow bending. Try to touch your shoulder and then flick your entire arm forward 10 times.
    Sixth exercise is clap and twist. Clap in front of you first Then reach back come back to the middle and clap and reach back with your other arm. Do this 10 times
    Seventh exercise is reach down and up. First position is reach down and then reach up trying to stretch your back and keeping your arm straight including your fingers and hold it for 10 seconds 10 times.
    8th exercise is reach Down and arms to the side. First position is reached down then come up and reach to the side holding for 10 seconds and repeating this 10 times.
    Ninth exercise is side step and reach. You will want to clap first and then you simultaneously step to the side with the arm of the same side that you were stepping is going parallel and your other arm is reaching up. Do this 10 times with 10 second hold.
    Tenth exercise is sit up and down. Push from your chair and pick up your buttocks and then sit back down 10 times.
    Then lastly, walk with your walker or your cane. Try to do more rounds if your walking path is a little shorter.
    Try to record yourself while doing this exercises so that you will see the difference with each coming day to continue to motivate you to keep going. Just remember to do large movements.

      Try using a plastig bag with a can. Swing it back and forth to practice the more natural movement. Do it while standing first

    Hi, Nathan! I've been a subscriber for close to two years now and wanted to thank you for your outstanding videos. I have early onset Parkinsons and using your videos daily have helped me tremendously. I live in a rural area and access to occupational therapy is a 35 minute trip one way. Your work eliminates that barrier. You make me smile and keep me motivated. Love your new look, but I think you looked nice before. God bless and I am proud to call you MY occupational therapist.
