Parkinson's Treatment
An intensive movement-rehabilitation program for Parkinson's at CIREN, pairing daily gait, balance, and speech therapy with NeuralCIM neuroprotective support.
Parkinson's disease gradually damages the brain cells that produce dopamine, the chemical that lets movement stay smooth, automatic, and well-controlled. The result is tremor, stiffness, slowness, and balance problems that worsen over time. At CIREN in Havana, the Parkinson's program is built specifically around movement — not a general neurology protocol. A team of neurologists, physical therapists, occupational therapists, and speech therapists works with each patient on the motor skills the disease attacks: walking, balance, turning, fine hand movement, and the clarity and volume of speech. NeuralCIM, a Cuban neuroprotective therapy, supports the dopamine-system neurons under stress.
