The purpose of the publication is to provide a rapid reference for physiotherapists treating people with Parkinson's. It is not intended as a text for those working in neurological specialty areas, but rather as a guide for those encountering people with Parkinson's who may require physiotherapy treatment for other conditions.

This is a concise reference on the most common features and clinically relevant aspects of Parkinson's, with an emphasis on the GP's role in diagnosis and symptom management. Though primarily aimed at GP's involved in the care of Parkinson's patients, others may find this manual useful when suspecting Parkinson's. This manual is the result of collaboration between Parkinson's care providers including neurologists, general practitioners (GP's), Parkinson's Nurse Specialists and allied health therapists.
