FIGHT PARKINSON'S DISEASE FREEZING
Limit the appearance of blockages and
reduce your risk of falling
Freezing is one of the most disabling symptoms in Parkinson's disease,
which results in an inability to initiate movement,
a sensation of "feet glued to the ground" and a sudden cessation of movement.
As the disease progresses, 70% of patients are affected by this symptom.
Freezing increases the risk of falls and can make walking dangerous.
These blockages, which appear several times a day, are unpleasant
and difficult to control.
They impact the performance of daily activities,
travel and relationships with relatives.
Freezing also increases the risk of falling,
gradually dragging the affected person
towards fragility and dependence.
Freezing rehabilitation is based on sensory stimulation methods.
Auditory rhythmic stimulation can reduce the appearance of freezing episodes by 75%.
THEWALK-DTx, implements this technique in a simple and personalized way at home.

The solution to walking difficulties linked to Parkinson's disease
Auditory rhythmic stimulation, implemented by the WALK, is a non-invasive stimulation method used in rehabilitation for more than 20 years.
It consists of using rhythmic signals to guide and pace the walk. The user simply has to follow the proposed rhythm to develop a smoother and more balanced gait.

Users testify
Sylvie K, 59
suffering from Parkinson's disease for 12 years
Sylvie details the negative impact of freezing on her daily life. She tells us about her discovery of the WALK and the gradual resumption of her activity and hobbies.
Jocelyn D,
suffering from Parkinson's disease for 19 years
The blockages no longer allowed him to dance and go out for a walk in the evening. Jocelyn tells us how she was able to reduce the freezing and resume her favorite activities thanks to the WALK.
Lily R,
suffering from Parkinson's disease for 4 years
Lily suffers from freezing which prevents her from moving properly and leads to falls. She tells us how she can regain control over her movements and regain her autonomy with the WALK.
