Very interesting news about the wii fit and how a lady's led her to being diagnosed with Parkinson's disease...if you haven't already heard you may be fascinated or better yet intrigued by this story. Her name is Julie and she discovered that she had Parkinson's disease when she started using the wii fit, she noticed that she leaned severely to one side while standing on the balance board.Julie had other symptoms that including problems with walking and balance and impaired memory, although she chose to ignore these symptoms until she recognized how offset her balance was by how bad she performed on the wii fit, this led her to a doctor, where she was properly diagnosed. She continues to regularly exercise and to use the wii fit. Julie is an example of a special case, not everyone is diagnosed this way and not all cases of Parkinson's are this unique. As always please consult with your physician before beginning a new exercise regime or treatment plan.
