Encompass Health is a leading provider of inpatient physical therapy, occupational therapy and speech language pathology.

The effects of Parkinson’s disease can be physically and emotionally hard on patients and their loved ones. While there is no cure for Parkinson’s, if diagnosed early, treatment and therapy can reduce the side effects and help patients lead an active lifestyle.

The goal of the Parkinson’s program at Encompass Health is to change each patient’s life for the better. We partner with our patients and their loved ones to teach disease management, endurance training, adaptive living skills, mobility training and communication/cognitive skills designed to improve their physical ability and lead to a more independent lifestyle.

We know Parkinson’s disease affects everyone differently. That’s why we individually assess each patient’s strengths and limitations before creating a custom treatment plan. We set the bar high when it comes to results, so we focus on teaching the skills it takes to increase independence, endurance, mobility and communication/cognitive skills.
