How Boxing Training Helps Manage Parkinson's Symptoms 🧠 💪

Boxing training has emerged as an innovative and effective exercise therapy for people living with Parkinson's disease. This non-contact approach combines physical activity with cognitive challenges that specifically target many symptoms associated with Parkinson's.

During each CounterPunch session, you'll experience:

• Improved mobility and balance through carefully designed movement patterns
• Enhanced hand-eye coordination with boxing drills that challenge your reflexes
• Increased strength through functional exercises that support everyday activities
• Cognitive stimulation as you learn boxing combinations and techniques
• Community support from others who understand the Parkinson's journey

Research suggests that the high-intensity nature of boxing exercise can potentially slow symptom progression and improve quality of life for people with Parkinson's. The rhythmic movements help address tremors, the footwork improves balance, and the overall activity supports cardiovascular health.

Our programme is tailored to accommodate all mobility levels, ensuring everyone can participate safely and confidently. Whether you're recently diagnosed or have been living with Parkinson's for years, our skilled instructor Lisa will modify exercises to suit your specific needs.
