TUNKHANNOCK — The Dietrich Theater will host a free presentation, entitled “Parkinson’s and the Power of Exercise,” at 11 a.m. April 7 for Parkinson’s Disease Awareness Month.

Parkinson’s disease is a degenerative movement disorder that can cause deterioration of motor skills, balance, speech and sensory function. A necessary way to fight the disease is exercise, which has been shown to slow its progression.

Kathy Reap, Rock Steady Boxing coach, will talk about the effect of high-intensity exercise on Parkinson’s disease. Kristina Dorkoski, from Allied/John Heinz, will discuss Parkinson’s wellness recovery and Maureen Pascal, from Misericordia University, will present her students’ research on Parkinson’s and exercise.

All four speakers will hold a question and answer session after the presentation.
Free tickets will be available at the door. For more information, call 570-996-1500.
