Artist Barbara Salsberg Mathews, who was diagnosed with Parkinson’s in 2020, has collected descriptions of what Parkinson’s feels like from people living with the condition, and transformed these into a new book of illustrations.
What Parkinson’s Feels Like was created to build empathy, inform and raise awareness about Parkinson’s.
This website about walking difficulties in Parkinson's disease have been developed for people with Parkinson's, their loved ones, and Parkinson healthcare providers. It is dedicated to the creative ways to improve gait: so-called 'compensation strategies'.
On this platform you will find a video overview of the known strategies, including background information. In addition, you have the opportunity to contribute to this overview yourself by sending in videos of your own successful strategies.
This way, this website forms an interactive platform where people with Parkinson's disease and healthcare professionals can learn from each other. By doing so, we hope to make it easier for everyone to find helpful ways to improve walking.
