Parkinson’s disease is a progressive, neurological disorder that affects the nerve cells in the brain. Common symptoms of Parkinson’s disease include tremors, shuffling gait, stooped posture, and quiet, slurred speech.

Fortunately, physical therapy and a good exercise program can help slow the progress of Parkinson’s and provide relief for symptoms. It also helps to improve flexibility, strength, and balance by addressing several of the issues that Parkinson’s disease may cause. Exercise is a key piece to improving quality of life for individuals with Parkinson’s Disease.

I had a great experience with the care that I received when I dislocated my knee cap. My therapist was Cody and he provided clear and concise instructions of my exercises. The compassion and understanding was very much appreciated. He really … More helped me gain the confidence back that I truly needed.The office staff was fantastic. They knew me by name after the first visit. I was a little sad to ring the bell but very proud of myself. I would recommend Schuster Physical Therapy. If I have any problems I’ll definitely be going back to Cody!

I am very pleased with the care I received following a knee replacement in March. My therapists were Cody and Julie. Both provided clear and concise instruction and illustration of my various exercises. Any questions I had were answered … More thoroughly. It was a pleasure to work with both Cody and Julie to help me recover from surgery. Their compassion and understanding was very much appreciated under an otherwise stressful situation. The office staff is extremely welcoming and helpful. I plan to get my other knee replaced this summer and I look forward to returning to the exceptional care provided by your organization. Thank you very much.

I cannot share enough wonderful things about Schuster Physical Therapy! I referred myself because of some ankle swelling and pain that I had been experiencing for over one year. Ortho had given me generic home PT to do. However, I was not … More physically able complete it. By the time I met the crew at Schuster PT, I was feeling very discouraged. I couldn’t be any happier with the decision I made to give them a call. Everyone from the front desk to the therapist were so kind and friendly! They also welcomed my toddler who came to almost all of my appointments with me. I worked with Cody Nail, PT DPT. He listened to my concerns and provided therapy based on me, as an individual, and my capabilities. I was able to complete every exercise he gave me! I began to feel a positive difference in my body and confidence level within the first week of beginning therapy. Cody encouraged me and helped build my self confidence back. Thank you doesn’t seem adequate compared to the gratitude I feel. Thank you Schuster PT!!!!!

The staff at Schuster is amazing, from the front desk staff to all the actual PT therapists. My PT was for my broken arm, a distal radius fracture, just below my right wrist. Since I’m right handed, I wanted to get back to normal ASAP. … More From day one I was given good exercises to do and they slowly increased in difficulty so I could get stronger and more flexible as time went on. With each session I got better and better until I was finally to the point where I had full motion, much better strength and can use my right hand and arm to do just about everything I could do before the bone break. To everyone at Schuster, THANK YOU!!
