Parkinson’s disease is a progressive neurological disorder that affects movement control. The team at Ashraya Hospital works closely with patients and their families to provide comprehensive management, including early diagnosis, medication management, physical therapy, and lifestyle advice to help control symptoms.
Parkinson’s Disease is a neurodegenerative disorder that primarily affects movement. It occurs when nerve cells in the brain that produce dopamine, a chemical responsible for controlling movement, become damaged or die. This leads to tremors, stiffness, slow movements, and balance issues.
While the exact cause is unknown, Parkinson’s disease is thought to result from a combination of genetic and environmental factors. In many cases, it is age-related, with symptoms typically appearing in individuals over 60 years old.
Early diagnosis is critical for managing Parkinson’s disease effectively. At Ashraya Hospital, our neurologists use a combination of the following methods to diagnose Parkinson’s disease:
Understanding the patient's symptoms, including tremors, rigidity, and balance issues.
Testing reflexes, muscle strength, coordination, and posture.
(CT/MRI scans)
To rule out other conditions that could cause similar symptoms.
A specialised imaging test that helps assess the dopamine levels in the brain.
Early diagnosis allows for better management of symptoms and quality of life.
At Ashraya Hospital, we offer a range of treatments to help manage Parkinson’s disease and improve your daily function.
Parkinson’s disease can impair movement, so physical therapy is key to improving mobility and preventing falls. A physical therapist will work with patients to develop customised exercise plans.

The first signs of Parkinson’s disease typically include tremors, slow movements, muscle rigidity, and balance issues. These symptoms may develop gradually.
Currently, there is no cure for Parkinson’s disease. However, symptoms can be managed with medications, physical therapy, and surgery.
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) involves implanting a device that sends electrical signals to the brain, helping alleviate symptoms like tremors and rigidity.
Physical therapy helps improve movement, balance, and coordination. It also helps prevent falls and maintain muscle strength.
Regular visits are necessary to monitor symptoms, adjust medications, and ensure that your treatment plan is effective. A neurologist may recommend follow-up appointments every 3 to 6 months.
