Physiotherapy relevant networks

Using this resource

AGILE has put together this resource to enable physiotherapists to look up information about Parkinson's and management of people with the condition.

The suggested resources are to complement and not replace searches on databases for specific areas of interest, journal articles and face-to-face courses where both practical skills can be gained, as well as networking with other physiotherapists.

The resource will be reviewed as new information, or updates become available.

In 2004, the Dutch Physiotherapy Society (KGNF) developed guidelines for physiotherapists working with Parkinson's. They have been updated in collaboration with 19 European physiotherapy associations to create the first European guideline launched in December 2014.

The Guideline is in four parts, and currently only available in English, although translations into other languages are underway.
