In this July 2025 Research Highlight, Claire McLean, PT, and founder of Rogue PT & Wellness, breaks down a promising study on how an intensive Parkinson’s exercise program helped patients reduce dyskinesia while maintaining motor function, even with lower medication doses.

This 4-week Parkinson’s wellness program involved daily structured movement, treadmill training with cues, functional mobility work, and occupational therapy, all contributing to significant improvements in movement control and reduced levodopa dosage.
