Parkinson's disease is a progressive disorder of the nervous system that affects movement. It develops gradually, often starting with a barely noticeable tremor in just one hand. But, while tremors may be the most well-known sign of Parkinson's disease, the disorder also commonly causes a slowing or freezing of movement. The authors aim to reflect on different features of a poliedric structure, like Parkinson's disease, and try to help clinicians and students to reflect on these aspects that mainly interfere with the daily life experience of patients and caregivers. © 2013 by Nova Science Publishers, Inc.

Abstract: | Parkinson's disease is a progressive disorder of the nervous system that affects movement. It develops gradually, often starting with a barely noticeable tremor in just one hand. But, while tremors may be the most well-known sign of Parkinson's disease, the disorder also commonly causes a slowing or freezing of movement. The authors aim to reflect on different features of a poliedric structure, like Parkinson's disease, and try to help clinicians and students to reflect on these aspects that mainly interfere with the daily life experience of patients and caregivers. © 2013 by Nova Science Publishers, Inc.
