As with so many paths that open to us in life, our guest in this episode did not set out to make a deep study of Parkinson's. She stumbled into it by first helping a number patients who had foot injuries. And from there has delved deeply into neurobiology, brain chemistry, Chinese medicine, and psychology in her study of how long-term physiological shock can effect brain chemistry and movement disorders. 
Our conversation touches on the triggering events that can lead to Parkinson's, and how recovery is a transformative DIY project.
This episode is longer than our usual podcast, and not only is packed full of helpful information for those affected by this condition, but also may challenge you to open your perspective on this disease. Especially if you don't have Parkinson’s, some of this material may uncomfortably challenge how you think about this illness. But, curiously enough, the people with Parkinson's find it oddly comforting that someone really gets something that is fundamental at their core. 
Listen in and be prepared to be surprised!
