Parkinson’s disease is a progressive disorder that can devastate affected individuals’ lives. Current medications can help to decrease some symptoms, and rehabilitation therapies provide strategies for living with impaired motor control and cognitive changes, but what patients and practitioners want most is a cure. These two articles describe the current understanding of the neurophysiology of Parkinson’s disease, and the medical intervention of deep brain stimulation (DBS), an approach that holds promise as significant symptom relief for some patients. By increasing your knowledge about DBS, you will be positioned to participate in team discussions, and to guide patients who want to know about this new intervention.

School- and hospital-based therapists are called upon to evaluate and treat children with a wide array of health problems. The first module describes the rational, safe, and effective uses of an often under utilized piece of medical equipment: the standing table. You may be surprised to discover the physiological and developmental benefits of standing for children with severe mobility impairments! The diagnosis-specific modules will equip readers with practical knowledge and skills to address occupational needs and prevent injury in children with two chronic health disorders that affect joint stability, strength, and endurance, and can cause chronic pain and cognitive deficits.
