The InMotion Approach™
What is the InMotion Approach™?
The InMotion Approach™ is a system that begins with multi-modal, holistic, evidence-based programs for people with Parkinson’s disease offered in a group setting. We focus on outcomes, with the expectation that our clients are strong, motivated, and informed self-advocates. It includes a stigma-free and safe environment that fosters a culture of camaraderie and a supportive community that values self-advocacy and self-efficacy.
The elements of the InMotion Approach™ include:
- Access to all programs and services for people with Parkinson’s disease and their care partners.
- A commitment to remove as many barriers to participation as possible.
- A program consistent with research documenting the value of physical activity in Parkinson’s disease that meets the individual mobility and cognitive needs of participants.
- Certified instructors who are knowledgeable about Parkinson’s disease.
- A robust volunteer program that contributes to the in-class safety of our participants.
- An ongoing Better Every Day™ Assessment process that contributes to outcomes measurement, both individually and collectively, and determine a person with Parkinson’s disease’s Prescription for Parkinson’s™ (Rx for PD).
- A facility designed to welcome people of varying levels of mobility and provide accommodations for services.
- A highly qualified professional staff that is committed to the organization’s mission.
- Support for clients and their care partners that addresses their needs during all stages of Parkinson’s disease.
