SLOW THE PROGRESSION OF PARKINSON'S DISEASE
Walk better and more often,
to reduce the progression of symptoms.
Parkinson's disease is a neurodegenerative disease associated with
progressive destruction of dopamine-producing neurons.
Over time, new symptoms appear and
walking becomes more and more difficult.
The appearance and development of these symptoms have a strong impact on autonomy, the performance of daily activities and leisure activities, and increase the risk of falls.
It is therefore necessary to act as soon as possible to reduce these consequences.
Physical activity is the best way to fight against the progression of symptoms.
It has been scientifically proven that regular physical activity
reduced the progression of motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease.
It is therefore necessary to practice regular physical activity.
The WALK DTx device helps to maintain this activity and regain better autonomy.

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
Xavier, 59
suffering from Parkinson's disease for 3 years
He tells us through this testimony how he was able to improve his walking pace and his posture thanks to the WALK.
Jean-Claude, 70 years old
suffered from Parkinson's disease for 10 years
He was having walking problems which no longer allowed him to do activities, he fell and could not speak when walking. Jean-Claude tells us how he was able to reduce the number of falls and resume his favorite activities thanks to the WALK.
John, 86
6 years of Parkinson's disease
Jean talks about the impact of Parkinson's on his walking and his autonomy and testifies to the contribution of the WALK in his daily life. "I feel liberated", he feels more comfortable moving around and less dependent.
