Here’s more about Delay the Disease!


Delay the Disease is an evidenced-based wellness program that empowers people with PD to live better, experience new levels of hope by optimizing function and restoring independence. Designed by leading Parkinson’s fitness specialists David Zid (BA, ACE, APG), OhioHealth Director of Movement Disorder and Musculoskeletal Wellness, and Jackie Russell (RN, BSN, CNOR) Program Development Coordinator. This national wellness program is designed to retrain the mind and body. Participants report improvement in quality of life, regained ability to successfully manage the disease, and regain control. This program targets daily functional challenges and symptom-specific fitness agendas. Exercise plans are adapted to all levels of the disease, valuable to newly diagnosed and progressed states alike. David and Jackie see changes in all participants and boast “It’s never too late to start exercise, and certainly never too early!” Visit www.delaythedisease.com for additional information, seminars, and educational courses.
