Neuro Wellness Center

Neuro Wellness Center Neuro Wellness Gilbert is a “Safe Haven” of friendship, exercise, art, education and support for the movement disorder community.

The wellness center, open since January 2012, was made possible by the philanthropy of Gilbert residents Alan Fitzgerald and his wife, Sheila, who attends as part of her management program for her Parkinson's. Outreach Program Manager Annette Edwards said that the center’s long-term goal is to “develop a program that is proven to be effective and can be duplicated. The goal is for the Neuro Wellness Center to set the bar for effective long-term treatment for individuals with Parkinson’s disease.”

It is with great sorrow that we announce that Walt Farrell has passed away at the age of 91. In sadness, we remember the positive attitude that Walt carried in our center for not only his fellow members, but their family who accompanied them. Walt was not only a beloved member, but his story started at BNW when his wife Jackie, was a member here. He was a devoted caregiver and a dedicated member to our program.

Walt was surrounded by love and will continue to receive love from us here in the center. His daughters wanted to put the word out that his celebration of life will be on Saturday, November 22nd at 1:00p at Faith Church of the Valley. Any and all are welcome to attend!

Thanks to our E.P. Christian we were able to jump into the week with a plyometric workout that focused on jumping! You can see, in the video jumping side to side, jumping over, and jumping onto items as well as calf raises to help with absorbing impact and then extending our ankles to help generate power when jumping. Jumping is beneficial not only those with Parkinson's, but also movement disorders and aging in general. It benefits:

Balance and Coordination: improves coordination and strengthens the sensory receptors in your joints and muscles that help you maintain balance.

Improved muscle and power: jumping engages fast-twitch muscle fibers, which helps build and maintain muscle mass and power, counteracting age-related muscle loss.

Functional Fitness Endurance: The strength, coordination, and balance gained from jumping translate directly to everyday life, helping you navigate obstacles like uneven sidewalks or curbs and improving your ability to recover from stumbles

Jumping is one of those things that "if you don't use it, you'll lose it" so here at BNW we try to maintain or work towards these skills and movements. Jumping may seem scary, but there are modifications available and assistance from other equipment/E.P.'s to ensure member safety!

This Friday, we will have Coffee Talk at 10:00am with Dr. Mahant! She will be doing a follow-up Q&A session from when she presented on Onapgo last month, the newly FDA-approved subcutaneous infusion treatment for Parkinson's Disease. If you have specific questions regarding Onapgo, bring them in and she will be happy to answer those questions for you.

As always, coffee and donuts will be here and ready for you! ☕🥯

Remember, Dr. Mahant tends to draw a big crowd when presenting here, so do plan on arriving early! We are looking forward to seeing you here!

Just a reminder for Coffee Talk tomorrow (Friday August 15th). It will NOT be at 10am! We will be joined by Dr. Mahant from 3-4pm! She will be coming to talk to us about Onapgo, a new subcutaneous infusion device that was FDA-approved back in February for Parkinson's Disease.

She will be coming to talk to us in greater detail about what it is, and to answer all your questions about Onapgo. She is a wealth of information and always draws a big crowd, so be sure to come early. We will also still have coffee and donuts. ☕️🍩

We are looking forward to having you join us tomorrow AFTERNOON to learn from Dr. Mahant!
