Occupational Therapy
Whether it's learning new techniques or using adaptive tools, occupational therapy aims to enhance your overall quality of life by making everyday tasks easier and more manageable.
Being diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease can be tough to hear. The progression of symptoms can make it difficult to do everyday things like getting out of bed, showering, getting dressed, walking, talking, remembering things, and even driving. This can make life more challenging and stressful. But there is hope!
If you or someone you care about is living with Parkinson’s disease, please get in touch with our friendly team at Royal Rehab LifeWorks Penrith to explore your options.

If any adjustments need to be made to your program, we’ll work with you to implement them in order to optimise your results. Our ultimate goal is to help you make progress and achieve the best possible outcomes from your therapy.
