Executive Summary

Modern science-based rehabilitation for Parkinson’s has shifted from a reactive, medication-only model to a proactive, holistic, and person-centered framework. This approach is defined by "integrated care" which positions the individual as the central driver of their own health outcomes. Key takeaways include the prioritization of intensive exercise as "medicine for the brain," the implementation of multidisciplinary care teams, and the cultivation of self-efficacy to manage both motor and non-motor symptoms. Emerging protocols, such as the ReGen program, demonstrate that significant motor and psychological improvements can be achieved through concentrated, multi-pillar interventions that leverage the brain's ability to adapt.
