Parkinson\u2019s Disease affects 1 in every 500 people in Canada; most people diagnosed are over the age of 60. Parkinson\u2019s disease affects both men and women.&nbsp; Statistically, however, men have a slightly higher chance of developing the disease.&nbsp; The risk of developing Parkinson\u2019s disease also increases with age, with the average age of onset being 65 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>#DYK: Over 100,000 Canadians are living with Parkinson\u2019s today and approximately 6,600 new cases of PD are diagnosed each year in Canada<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While there is no known cure for Parkinson\u2019s, taking steps to manage the disease can increase a senior\u2019s quality of life and help to reduce the impact of symptoms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Parkinson\u2019s Disease Can Manifest in the Following Ways:<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Tremors<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Balance problems<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Cognitive impairment<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Mood disorders<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Short steps and slowed movement (bradykinesia)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Speech and writing changes<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Those that have been diagnosed with Parkinson\u2019s should discuss management strategies with a healthcare professional. There are a variety of medications and therapies that a doctor can recommend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Four Everyday Symptom Management Strategies Can Include:<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>#1. Finding Ways to Relieve Stress:&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There is ample evidence that stress can make symptoms worse. However, they usually return to normal levels once the cause of stress is removed. Activities that can help reduce stress include meditation, yoga, deep breathing, getting outside, spending time with loved ones, participating in hobbies or physical activity approved by a physician.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>#2. Maintaining a Good Diet:&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For those with Parkinson\u2019s, proper nutrition will not only help manage symptoms, but can help slow the progression of the disease in some seniors. In addition to healthy, nutritious food, it\u2019s important to prevent dehydration too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>#3. Adapting Your Home:&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Depending on the Parkinson\u2019s symptoms that someone is experiencing, there are a variety of ways to improve everyday life with a few adjustments to living space. For those with trouble walking, or those that need a wheelchair, wide walkways help manage mobility. Mattresses with adjustable features can be helpful for anyone with difficulty getting in and out of bed, and grab bars may be helpful for those with balance issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>#4. Preventing Falls:&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Having trouble walking is a common Parkinson\u2019s disease symptom. Minimizing fall risk is an important safety management strategy that is easy to execute. Wearing proper footwear, making sure rooms are properly lit and removing trip hazards can all help reduce the risk of falls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Comfort Keepers<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> Can Help<\/strong> <strong>with Managing Parkinson&#8217;s Disease Symptoms<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For those who need extra help, in-home caregivers can help facilitate stress management activities, provide support for physician-approved diet and exercise plans and will evaluate a home for safety as part of an in-home assessment.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Caregivers can also help with mobility, improve home safety, provide transportation to appointments and events and can help seniors maintain positive mental health through connection, engagement, and companionship.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.comfortkeepers.ca\/northandwestvancouver\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/139\/2025\/04\/CK-Blog-second-photo-12-1024x768.png\" alt=\"A senior male is seated on a couch | Promoting Bone Health | Comfort Keepers North and West Vancouver\" class=\"wp-image-6140 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.comfortkeepers.ca\/northandwestvancouver\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/139\/2025\/04\/CK-Blog-second-photo-12-1024x768.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.comfortkeepers.ca\/northandwestvancouver\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/139\/2025\/04\/CK-Blog-second-photo-12-300x225.png 300w, https:\/\/www.comfortkeepers.ca\/northandwestvancouver\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/139\/2025\/04\/CK-Blog-second-photo-12-768x576.png 768w, https:\/\/www.comfortkeepers.ca\/northandwestvancouver\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/139\/2025\/04\/CK-Blog-second-photo-12.png 1200w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1024px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1024\/768;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The Best Senior Home Care in North and West Vancouver is Comfort Keepers<sup>\u00ae<\/sup><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our senior home care agency offers in-home care focusing on aging in place.
