About Parkinson’s Disease

Nearly one million people in the United States are living with Parkinson's disease. April is Parkinson’s Awareness Month because the first doctor to describe the disease was born this month. James Parkinson, a physician based in London, wrote “An Essay on the Shaking Palsy,” in 1817. Parkinson’s disease affects the nervous system of middle aged and edlery people. It causes muscle stiffness and tremors. There is currently no cure for Parkinson’s disease but treatment can help.
