10.01.2022 Our next virtual living well zoom session is coming up on Nov 19th - Sensory processing is the way that a person perceives, processes and organises the information that they receive through their senses hearing, sight, touch, smell, taste and movement. This sensory information can work both for you and against you, and can even be involved in exacerbating or relieving some of the symptoms of Parkinson’s such as fatigue and anxiety. This session aims to encourage you to consider how you interpret sensory information and get you thinking about using your sensory system as a symptom management tool. RSVP on 83578909 or [email protected] Join us on Zoom via www.parkinsonssa.org.au/zoom
