TENZIN.MR smith is 65y/o who has had pd for over 5 years, recently he is…

- - - - yes, I used to box in the army and now I've been dealing with a lot of stiffness and I feel like I need to move more, but I'm not sure what I can do to help
        
        I understand that stiffness can be challenging to deal with, especially with Parkinson's. I have a couple of complementary therapies that might help you feel better. One is boxing for Parkinson's, and the other is massage therapy. Would you like me to explain how these therapies can help improve your symptoms?
        
        Yes, please. I'm curious to know how boxing could help someone like me with Parkinson's.
        
        Boxing for Parkinson's is a unique form of high-intensity training designed specifically for individuals with PD. It focuses on improving balance, coordination, endurance, and gait. By training alongside others with PD, you can share your experiences and feel supported in your journey.
        
        That sounds interesting. And what about massage therapy? How can that help me?
        
        Massage therapy can provide several benefits for people with Parkinson's. It can help to reduce muscle and joint stiffness, which may improve your mobility. Additionally, massage can provide pain relief, stress relief, and relaxation, which can enhance your emotional well-being.

        Oh, that's too bad. Well, I'm not sure what to suggest. Maybe just try to stretch more?
        
        I've tried stretching, but it doesn't seem to help much.
        
        i am sorry to hear that, (Doest explore further)Let's move on to some other assessments for now. How has your appetite been lately?
        
        My appetite has been okay, but I'm still concerned about my stiffness. Are there any therapies or exercises that could help?
        
        I will let you next time,lright, let's check your blood pressure and pulse. Please give me your arm.

        I see. Have you considered trying some light exercises or stretches to help with your stiffness? It might be worth looking into.
        
        yes, I have tried that, but it doesn't seem to help much. Is there anything else you can recommend for me?
        
        (not fully addressing Mr. Smith's concerns) Hmm, you could try going for short walks or joining a local support group to learn about other people's experiences
        
        That's an idea, but I was hoping for some more specific recommendations. Are there any therapies or exercises that could help?
        
        I am very sorry, but my knowledge is very limited in this area, but i give you my word when i visit you tomorrow, i will have more concrete solution.
