Martial Arts and PD

Keith recently posted on his blog about new developments in boxing as a way to treat the symptoms of PD. We wondered if martial arts would have the same effect. I've done a bit of research, and as I expected martial arts is wonderful for PWP. Specifically, T'AI CHI seems to be the style that stands out as being most effective. It really helps the body relax and loosen up. Jerry Wild has some great information on his site as well as a T'AI CHI workout dvd you can order.
