Speech & Swallowing

Join us before the event for our Toledo Resource Fair! From 12-1pm, we will have local Parkinson's resources lined up to hand out free information and resources.
Most people with Parkinson’s disease will experience changes in speech, voice and swallowing at some point during the course of the disease. Learn tools and exercises to help you better understand and manage speech, swallowing and communication problems in PD.

In sessions with Dr. Rush, we explore different dimensions of a mindfulness practice. She will share ways to ground and settle the mind and body.
