Parkinson’s Specialists
For those managing Parkinson's Disease, get back to being you!
As a progressive neurological disorder, Parkinson’s presents unique challenges that evolve over time, affecting movement, balance, and even cognitive functions. It results from the degeneration of dopamine-producing neurons in the brain, leading to motor and non-motor symptoms that worsen over time. Individuals with Parkinson's often face daily hurdles in performing once-routine tasks, from buttoning a shirt to walking across a room.
Moore MyoWorx is Denver’s beacon of hope in chronic pain treatment for Parkinson’s and a variety of other conditions. Through our Accelerated Recovery Program, we’ve welcomed patients from all corners of the globe, providing a dedicated and successful treatment course where traditional methods have seen little effect.
“The staff at Moore MyoWorx is very skilled and knows the best ways to relieve chronic pain. They will treat your aching body to get you back to feeling well again as well as teach you how to exercise your muscles at home for future long term care. I highly recommend Moore MyoWorx!”
“Much different than any other PT clinic I’ve been a patient in or worked at. The providers take their time to work with their patients, collaborate with one another, and genuinely care about the patients’s experience.”
Symptoms of Parkinson’s usually begin gradually and worsen over time including:
Unintended or uncontrollable movements
Shaking, or tremors
Stiffness, or rigidity
Difficulty with balance and coordination
Slow movement
Difficulty speaking, swallowing, or chewing
Urinary problems or constipation
Skin problems
Depression and other emotional changes
Cognitive disturbances, such as slowed cognitive processing speed, executive dysfunction, and disrupted time perception

Parkinson’s Success Story from our Denver Clinic:
“I was diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease over 17 years ago and fought the progression through maintaining an active lifestyle and daily exercise, including Yoga. I was at a point where my balance, gait, and strength were worsening. Fortunately, I was introduced to Moore MyoWorx and given the opportunity to participate in their Accelerated Recovery Program. I must say I was doubtful but thought at least I could help them learn about Parkinson's Disease and maybe get some relief.
Let me tell you, by day two of the program when asked how I was doing, my answer was: this is incredible! I was already experiencing improvement in balance, walking, and strength! I am a retired tool and die maker, and I always enjoyed creating new projects on my 3D printer. Over time my hand tremor got so bad I literally couldn't hold on to a wrench to make simple adjustments and set-up my 3d printer. The same struggle was happening with other home projects. My wife loves to sew but her sewing machine needed some new parts installed before she could use it. Due to my hand tremor, it wasn't possible for me to make that happen.
However, over the weekend after the first week, thanks to the Moore MyoWorx program, the tremor in my right hand was almost nonexistent. Then I was able to set-up and fine tune my printer and get back to 3D printing again! I also installed and adjusted the new parts in my wife's sewing machine in a matter of minutes and my wife was sewing again!
And on the 8th day in the clinic, my balance and strength improvement enabled me to do one of my favorite activities--I did a Yoga Crow on the floor of the clinic!
I no longer have any doubts. If you are suffering from Parkinson's Disease and diligently engage in the Moore MyoWorx Accelerated Recovery Program, you can get your life back!”
“To give someone back a life, give them something so they can have a useful life…there is nothing more valuable than that. Nothing.”

Blog: 3 Major Benefits of Exercise for Individuals Managing Parkinson's Disease
Does exercise help those with Parkinson’s? The answer is an emphatic YES!
While anyone’s life can be improved with exercise, it is especially crucial for people with Parkinson's as it helps improve mobility, balance, and flexibility, which can mitigate some of the motor symptoms associated with the disease. Regular physical activity also supports overall brain health, potentially slowing the progression of Parkinson's.
Moore MyoWorx recognizes the power of targeted physical activity in Parkinson's management. Our specialized programs are designed to harness these benefits, providing personalized exercise regimens that address each patient's unique needs.
By focusing on non-invasive, movement-based therapies, Moore MyoWorx empowers patients to take control of their condition, offering a path to improved function and well-being without relying solely on medications or surgical interventions.
