FFPNR HELPS A COMMUNITY

The Foundation for Parkinson’s and Neurological Research stretched out its arms to embrace those with Parkinson’s in the Morongo Basin  including the town of Yucca Valley, California.  A donation was made to the Senior Health and  Social Resource Center. This facility has the only exercise pool for those with Parkinson’s and other debilitating problems like arthritis, post and pre op and anyone who can not exercise on land.  The money will also be used to help those with Parkinson’s use the facility if they can not afford it.

CARE COALITION RECOVERY PROGRAM MENTOR TRAINING SESSION

John got an excellent opportunity to speak to wounded veterans and their care takers along with about 50 other military personnel and civilians in Tampa Florida this summer.  He spoke on the similarities of treatment with Parkinson’s and head trauma and how music therapy and specifically the playing of the Native American flute may help.  

Please enjoy the Power Point used in the speech by clicking here.
