  2. What is PD? • Parkinson’s disease is a progressive degenerative disorder in the central nervous system. • PD affects your speech and motor (movement) skills such as; walking, and coordination. http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://photos.demandstudios.com/55/116/fotolia_5368484_XS.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.livestrong.com/article/167900-therapeutic-ball-exercises-for-parkinsons-disease/&usg=__vbQnrKZ8f0s0ojp2ZhIjMsFtuWE=&h=283&w=424&sz=53&hl=en&start=179&zoom=1&tbnid=K4_MhXPZnqMLcM:&tbnh=105&tbnw=140&ei=KK7bTZ_XLNLAgQee3p34Dw&prev=/search%3Fq%3Dparkinsons%2Bdisease%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26sa%3DN%26biw%3D1020%26bih%3D415%26tbm%3Disch0%2C4379&um=1&itbs=1&iact=hc&vpx=621&vpy=121&dur=2574&hovh=183&hovw=275&tx=130&ty=134&sqi=2&page=16&ndsp=13&ved=1t:429,r:11,s:179&biw=1020&bih=415

  3. What Causes PD? • Parkinson’s Disease is caused when dopamine cells in the brain are slowly destroyed and can no longer be made. • This causes messages from the brain not to be sent to other parts of the body. • The lack of dopamine causes muscle tension and tremors of the body http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://assets.treesd.com/images/healthtree/articles/ParkinsonsDopamine.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.healthtree.com/articles/parkinsons-disease/causes/&usg=__dDPTiw4d1-NGQe_62yVkhpjoYIQ=&h=280&w=252&sz=19&hl=en&start=0&zoom=1&tbnid=b_wa2pZIamGIDM:&tbnh=111&tbnw=98&ei=Wa3bTejmBcHegQeLwtQO&prev=/search%3Fq%3Dparkinson%2527s%2Bdisease%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26sa%3DX%26biw%3D1003%26bih%3D415%26tbm%3Disch&um=1&itbs=1&iact=rc&dur=78&sqi=2&page=1&ndsp=13&ved=1t:429,r:7,s:0&tx=63&ty=55 http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.holisticonline.com/images/PD-ama-schematic1.GIF&imgrefurl=http://www.holisticonline.com/remedies/parkinson/pd_brain.htm&usg=__aHPQ3Tu-DX_TPGphURdk2AvZV2w=&h=564&w=504&sz=33&hl=en&start=0&zoom=1&tbnid=kNmlWJvwJy-IXM:&tbnh=111&tbnw=99&ei=Wa3bTejmBcHegQeLwtQO&prev=/search%3Fq%3Dparkinson%2527s%2Bdisease%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26sa%3DX%26biw%3D1003%26bih%3D415%26tbm%3Disch&um=1&itbs=1&iact=hc&vpx=110&vpy=66&dur=452&hovh=238&hovw=212&tx=101&ty=197&sqi=2&page=1&ndsp=13&ved=1t:429,r:6,s:0
