Physical Therapy And Huntington’s Disease

This week I’m sharing information on another multidisciplinary care team member at a HDSA Center of Excellence, a physical therapist, who can help your loved one struggling with Huntington’s disease (HD).

Physical therapist, Erica Pitsch, at the HDSA University of California, San Francisco HD Clinic is specialized in the care and rehabilitation of those with neurological disorders. She has been working with HD patients and families for many years, providing evaluations and formulating care plans across the entire disease spectrum, from designing exercise programs to preventing falls to finding the right gadgets to maximize independence. She works with patients in HD clinic for periodic consultations and tune-ups, but is also available for more regular treatment of patients.
