Managing Parkinson’s disease can be challenging, but with the right therapy, significant improvements are possible. At Talking Brains Center in Dubai, we offer specialized therapies for Parkinson’s patients, including both occupational therapy and speech therapy. Our goal is to help you or your loved ones improve motor skills, speech, and overall quality of life.
Occupational Therapy for Parkinson’s
Our occupational therapy focuses on restoring mobility, coordination, and the ability to perform daily tasks, helping patients regain independence and improve their daily functioning.
Speech Therapy for Parkinson’s
Parkinson’s disease can affect speech and communication. Our speech therapy program is designed to enhance speech clarity, fluency, and non-verbal communication, empowering patients to communicate effectively.

Parkinson’s Disease causes tremors, muscle rigidity, slowing of the voluntary movements, tendency to fall back, a mask-like facial expression and finally leads to lack of body movement. It is due to the degradation of nerve cells or neurons of the brain that control movement.
Parkinson’s is a chronic, degenerative condition of the central nervous system that largely affects the motor system. Typically, the symptoms appear gradually, and as the condition worsens, non-motor symptoms develop with greater severity.
- Tremors, mainly at rest in hands; other forms of tremors are possible.
- Slowness and paucity of movement (called bradykinesia and hypokinesia).
- Limb stiffness (rigidity).
- Gait and balance problems (postural instability).
- Specific cognitive deficits affecting the visuo-spatial information, attention, memory, and executive functions.
- Speech problem known as neurological dysarthria.
- In some case, depression, and anxiety.
There is no permanent cure for Parkinson’s. However, some coping mechanisms can be adapted to reduce symptoms. Parkinson’s disease management calls for a multifaceted strategy that includes managing medications, engaging in physical activity, and receiving assistance from loved ones or a support group. Keeping physically active can aid with mobility and symptom reduction. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle, including eating a balanced diet, getting adequate sleep, and lowering stress, is crucial. Managing symptoms and implementing the necessary lifestyle changes can be made easier by collaborating with a doctor and healthcare team.
Improving Quality of Life through Personalized Care
Therapy plays a vital role in enhancing the quality of life for individuals with Parkinson’s Disease (مرض باركنسون | Maladie de Parkinson). Through targeted physical and cognitive exercises, we help patients improve their range of motion, balance, and coordination.
Our approach also includes:
Symptom Management: Techniques to manage common symptoms such as tremors (الرعشة | Tremblements), muscle stiffness (تصلب العضلات | Rigidité musculaire), and slowed movements (بطء الحركة | Bradykinésie).
Coping Strategies: Helping patients adapt to physical and emotional changes with confidence.
Neuropsychological Assessment: A detailed evaluation supports better diagnosis and treatment planning by identifying cognitive changes early.
Cognitive Training: Exercises that strengthen memory, focus, and processing speed, helping to delay cognitive decline (التدهور المعرفي | Déclin cognitif).
Speech Improvement with LSVT LOUD: We use the globally recognized Lee Silverman Voice Treatment (علاج لوف سيلفرمان الصوتي | Méthode vocale LSVT) to improve vocal loudness, clarity, and communication confidence.
Emotional Well-Being: Our licensed psychotherapist (المعالج النفسي | Psychothérapeute) supports patients in navigating emotional challenges and enhancing mental health throughout the treatment journey.
Our goal is to support every patient’s journey with empathy, structure, and proven care — in Arabic, French, or English, based on your preference.
At TBC, our Lebanese therapists in Dubai, UAE specialize in speech therapy for adults, along with occupational and psychomotor therapy, offering sessions in Arabic, French, and English to assist patients in overcoming their challenges.
