Currently, there are about 53.000 people in The Netherlands which have been diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease (PD) and this number is increasing fast. PD is a progressive disorder that affects the nervous system and the parts of the body controlled by the nerves, causing problems with movement, mental health, sleep, pain, and other health issues. PD gets worse over time and there is no cure yet. However, therapy, tools and medicines exist that can reduce symptoms and thus improve the quality of life for people with PD.
