After over one year "pause" due to Covid restrictions, we are back!
We had the first live support group meetings in Tellico Village and Oak Ridge. This week will we meet first time with our Maryville group. West Knoxville and Farragut will also start to meet in June. We have a fantastic program planned for the remaining of 2021.
New FREE movement classes will start soon. We teamed up with Dancer's Studio in Knoxville and will offer "Dance for Parkinson's" classes. Pilates for PD is already going on. Ballroom dance will also start in the next couple of weeks. Let's get busy!
We encourage every participant to be vaccinated. In general, your age alone increases your risk of complications from COVID-19 infection. Depending on what PD symptoms you have, PD can also increase the risk of complications from the virus. For these reasons, it would be wise to protect yourself as much as possible from COVID-19, which would include getting vaccinated. As always, speak to your doctor about your individual clinical situation and to find out when and where you will be able to get the vaccine.
Here the CDC guidelines:
If you’ve been fully vaccinated:
You can resume activities that you did prior to the pandemic.
You can resume activities without wearing a mask or staying 6 feet apart, except where required by federal, state, local, tribal, or territorial laws, rules, and regulations, including local business and workplace guidance.
For now, if you’ve been fully vaccinated:
You will still need to follow guidance at your workplace and local businesses.
If you travel, you should still take steps to protect yourself and others. You will still be required to wear a mask on planes, buses, trains, and other forms of public transportation traveling into, within, or out of the United States, and in U.S. transportation hubs such as airports and stations. Fully vaccinated international travelers arriving in the United States are still required to get tested within 3 days of their flight (or show documentation of recovery from COVID-19 in the past 3 months) and should still get tested 3-5 days after their trip.
You should still watch out for symptoms of COVID-19, especially if you’ve been around someone who is sick. If you have symptoms of COVID-19, you should get tested and stay home and away from others.
People who have a condition or are taking medications that weaken the immune system, should talk to their healthcare provider to discuss their activities. They may need to keep taking all precautions to prevent COVID-19.
I was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease four years ago. For more than two years, I relied on prescription medications and therapy, but unfortunately, my condition kept getting worse. The tremors became more severe, my mobility declined, and the constant fatigue made daily life increasingly difficult. Out of both concern and hope, my wife encouraged me to try the herbal treatment program from NaturePath Herbal Clinic. At first, I wasn’t sure it would help, but after a few months on the program, I began to notice real improvements. My energy came back, the discomfort eased, and I felt more steady and confident in my movements. What amazed me most was regaining much of my stamina and balance I can now do…
I battled advanced Parkinson’s disease for 8 years, starting at age 56. My symptoms included tremors, muscle stiffness, slow movement, and severe balance issues. Despite trying many conventional treatments, nothing brought lasting relief. Then I discovered the P-D treatment program from Dr. Madida Sam at Earth Cure Herbal Clinic. I found their contact at www.earthcureherbalclinic.com and reached out via email at info@earthcureherbalclinic.com. Within 6 months of starting the program, my symptoms were completely gone, something I never thought possible. I'm incredibly grateful to Dr. Madida Sam and his team for helping me regain my life. If you're struggling with chronic illness and looking for an alternative approach, I highly recommend giving this a try. It truly changed everything for me.
My dear friend battled Lupus for over 4 years and found no relief through conventional treatments. She was losing hope until I recommended Dr. Madida Sam at Earthcure Herbal Clinic (www.earthcureherbalclinic.com), who had helped me with Multiple Sclerosis and treated my mom’s Parkinson’s. Inspired by our results, she tried Earthcure herbal clinic's treatment and within two months, her symptoms vanished. She's now healthy, back to work, and eager to share her story. I strongly recommend the Earthcure herbal clinic to anyone facing a chronic illness. It could be the healing you've been searching for. Thanks to Earthcure Herbal Clinic for helping us.

I suffered from Parkinson’s disease for 7 painful years. The symptoms were debilitating, and I had almost given up hope until I discovered EarthCure Herbal Clinic. After just a few months of using their natural treatment, all my symptoms were completely reversed. My neurologist, with over 40 years of experience, called it a miracle and said he’d never seen anything like it. I strongly recommend EarthCureHerbalClinic. com to anyone struggling with Parkinson’s or other chronic illnesses. They gave me my life back.
