Participating in education/support groups is essential for coping with an illness such as Parkinson's Disease or other disorders that impair bodily movement. Studies show that the information, training, and counseling that participants receive while attending support group sessions enhances the quality of life, helps to alleviate stress, and may even boost the immune system.
