Summary
Join Kay Mayordomo, PT, DPT as she dives into a case study involving a patient's experience post-DBS due to Parkinson's, revealing the ongoing challenges he faced with balance and safety. Despite good lower extremity strength, his reactive postural control was lacking, leading to frequent falls. We focused on improving his gait, safety awareness, and even floor recovery techniques to empower him and reduce caregiver burden.
