Inside the Parkinson's
Power Protocol™
A game-changing, proactive system designed to connect the dots — empowering you to take control of your Parkinson's across five pillars of health.
Train Like an Athlete, Not a Patient
The PPP is built on a bold idea: people with Parkinson's can adopt an athlete's mindset. This isn't about chasing medals — it's about striving for daily improvement across five key areas of health. Traditional care often coddles fragility, but the PPP encourages you to push your limits with purpose. Imagine moving from vague advice to a structured, personalized plan that tells you exactly what to do, why, and how.
Shaping Your Future
Without intervention, it's a slow downward slope. The PPP aims for a higher, flatter curve — compressing decline and maximizing vital, functional years.
Standard Care Manages Symptoms.
PPP Builds Capacity.
Most Parkinson's care is reactive — wait for decline, then adjust medication. The Parkinson's Power Protocol is proactive: build the reserves that make you resilient.
| Parkinson's Power Protocol™ | Standard Care |
|
|---|---|---|
| Holistic, systemic approach Five integrated pillars — athletic, restorative, metabolic, cognitive & emotional — working as one system. |
||
| Builds motor, cognitive & physiological reserve Three layers of protection — your shield against further degeneration, not just symptom management. |
||
| Muscle mass, bone density, strength & power Progressive overload builds the physical engine — not gentle exercises that maintain the status quo. |
||
| Neuroplasticity, neurogenesis & angiogenesis Training that rewires neural pathways, grows new neurons, and builds new blood vessels in the brain. |
||
| Mitochondrial biogenesis & energy production Structured high-intensity training grows new mitochondria — your cells' power plants. More energy, less fatigue. |
||
| Neurotrophic factors & myokine release Muscles as chemical factories — releasing BDNF, irisin & protective signalling molecules that shield the brain. |
||
| Mobility, flexibility & fall prevention Sensorimotor and balance training to maintain independence, range of motion & confidence in movement. |
||
| Aims to reduce medication dependency Builds your system's capacity so medication works better — and in many cases, doses can be discussed for reduction with your neurologist. |
||
| Sleep, gut health & glymphatic brain detox Optimised recovery clears alpha-synuclein, reduces inflammation & protects brain infrastructure. |
Movement is medicine — but only when done the right way.
Structured
Vague advice is a thing of the past. A step-by-step roadmap designed to guide you purposefully through each phase.
Progressive
Parkinson's is progressive — so is our approach. Continuous advancement to help you stay proactive and resilient.
Personalized
Extreme heterogeneity in PD means each experience varies widely. PPP is customized to your specific Parkinson profile.
Monitored
24/7 Performance Tracker builds a Personal Dashboard. Every step is measurable, meaningful, and aligned with your goals.
Five Pillars of Health
Each targets a critical aspect of Parkinson's, working together to slow progression and boost well-being.
Athletic Health
Strength, power, VO2 max, and mobility training form your first line of defense. High-intensity exercise improves motor function and may slow disease progression. This isn't random activity — it's the right dose, intensity, and frequency to optimize your body's potential.
Restorative Health
Quality sleep flushes brain toxins like alpha-synuclein, supports physical recovery, and stabilizes emotions. Late nights cut deep sleep by half; early wake-ups slash REM. The PPP prioritizes consistent, high-quality sleep — without it, efforts in other areas fall flat.
Metabolic Health
The Performance Diet tackles inflammation — a key driver of progression. Whole, unprocessed foods support your gut (your "second brain"), reducing toxic proteins. This isn't about fads; it's about eating to enhance performance, time protein with levodopa, and boost sleep.
Cognitive Health
Cognitive decline hits up to 80% of PD patients. The PPP fights back with dual-task exercises, puzzles, and new skills to boost neuroplasticity. Paired with physical activity, sleep, and diet, these strategies keep your brain sharp and you independent.
Emotional Health
Stress and isolation spike cortisol, fueling inflammation and worsening symptoms. Positive emotions, community, and purpose do the opposite. The PPP builds emotional strength through support networks and stress-management tools — because a calm mind slows decline.
