Movement Matters: Living Well with Parkinson’s & MS

A complimentary community program with practical movement strategies to help people living with Parkinson’s disease or Multiple Sclerosis. Movement Matters: Living Well with Parkinson’s Disease & Multiple Sclerosis Living with Parkinson’s disease or Multiple Sclerosis can change how you move - but it does not erase the things you still want to do. Movement Matters is a complimentary community program designed to help you better understand how movement can support confidence, strength, mobility, and the ability to keep doing more of what matters to you. Join Dr. Joseph Nesser, PT, DPT, Co-Founder of Propel Rehabilitation & Wellness, Physical Therapist, and Certified Rock Steady Boxing® Coach, for an engaging, practical conversation about making movement more useful, more manageable, and more meaningful in everyday life. This isn’t about complicated exercise routines or trying to keep up with someone else. It’s about understanding what to focus on, how movement can be adapted, and how to keep participating in more of the activities and routines that matter to you. What We’ll Explore • Moving with greater confidence • Building strength, balance, and mobility into everyday life • Making movement feel more manageable and sustainable • Understanding how to challenge yourself appropriately without guessing There will also be time for simple movement demonstrations, questions, and conversation. Participation in any movement is completely optional. Come on your own or bring a spouse, care partner, family member, or friend. This program is especially relevant for people living with Parkinson’s disease or Multiple Sclerosis, but anyone interested in learning more is welcome.
