Groundbreaking Discoveries

There have been few new therapies to treat neurological diseases since the 1970’s – until now. Research discoveries are popping out right and left in 2025. New ways to treat Parkinsons never before possible have been helping more and more people celebrate symptom relief.

I introduce these new discoveries and natural therapies during live classes which begin Monday, August 18th and continue consecutive Mondays for 10 classes. Live classes convene at 12:00 pm pacific time. Replays are available for all 10 classes.

Does Anyone Ever Recover from Parkinson’s?

The most frequent question I am asked is the topic of this short post. You may have heard stories of one or two persons who succeeded in reversing their symptoms, but are there any more?

Listen to my interviews with ten individuals who adopted different ways to reverse their symptoms. Each story is indeed remarkable.

The page below provides the details.

Five Steps to Clear the Roadblock to Recovery

    • Have you been taking all the steps everyone knows are required to celebrate a successful recovery from Parkinson’s symptoms?
    • Have you been frustrated because symptoms have not improved?

I know the reason why.

A deeply embedded belief that it is impossible to reverse Parkinsons is the show stopper. If you believe Parkinsons is degenerative, the prospects for recovery are slim indeed.

Thoughts are the most powerful force in the universe –

    • More powerful than nuclear energy
    • More powerful than the combined weapons of all the armies in the world.

Thoughts can heal. They are also the reason symptoms persist We make choices every moment about what thoughts to embrace and which ones to silence.

    • Negative thoughts feed symptoms.
    • Positive ones reverse them.

A proven approach to silence negative thoughts that obstruct recovery is documented in Five Steps to Recovery.

Mindfulness Challenges

Weekly mindfulness challenges are posted here on one of the member websites: https://www.stress.member.parkinsonsrecovery.com/
This new program will send the challenge to your email.
It takes time, focus and patience to reset our neurological system to a state of oneness, calmness and centeredness. This is just what the Parkinsons Recovery mindfulness challenges sent to your email address are designed to accomplish.
Intricate systems of the body do not reset overnight. They were originally forged through years of habit. It takes time for the transformation to take hold. This is why mindfulness offers a huge boost to recovery.
Establish a new way of being in the world little by little, day by day, moment by moment.

Parkinsons Recovery Weekly Mindfulness Challenges offer an invitation each week to become more mindful, centered and balanced so that you can break out of the habits that inflame stress. Long term benefits of a successful mindfulness practice are considerable.

  • Mindfulness reduces stress.
  • Reductions in stress lead to reductions in symptoms.
Join the program for only a $5 monthly subscription. The program lasts a year. For more information and to join visit:

2025 Update for Road to Recovery from Parkinsons

It has been six years since I updated my best selling book – Road to Recovery from Parkinsons. Why have there been no recent updates?

Answer: Updates of print books become quickly outdated with new discoveries about therapies that make it possible for individuals to celebrate a relief from their symptoms.

A 2025 update of Road to Recovery from Parkinsons Disease is now available on a multi-media platform. The 2025 update includes an audiobook of the contents, videos and of course the printed text.

Living Well with Parkinsons

 Sel Kerans , Author of Leading the Dance: Living Well with Parkinsons Disease

leading the dance

Trust me on this. Take the time to listen to this interview which was recorded several years ago. It will be well worth your time!

Sel Kerans discusses his new book, Leading the Dance: Living well with Parkinsons Disease, and his own journey on the road to recovery in an open, conversational expose of a five year journey with Parkinsons disease and the experiences that have inspired the writing of a book that may be helpful, motivational and encouraging for others, especially those newly diagnosed with the condition.

His book has been dedicated to the late Robin Williams and is about overcoming adversity, staying positive and content; focusing on healing, recovery and living well. Leading the dance with an unwelcome stranger called Parkinsons disease. Sel discusses:

  • What hurdles have you faced?
  • How have you overcome them?
  • Would you consider yourself recovered from Parkinson’s disease?
  • Do you believe it’s possible to recover completely from the symptoms of Parkinson’s disease?
  • You mention in your book some reluctance with medication – what’s been your approach to taking medication over the five years?
  • What resources have been useful for you in learning about alternative approaches to managing the symptoms?

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS)

How TMS Works:

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) uses magnetic fields to induce electrical currents in specific regions of the brain. A coil placed on the scalp generates a magnetic pulse, which can influence neuronal activity. Depending on the frequency and pattern of stimulation, TMS can either excite or inhibit brain regions, offering therapeutic effects.

TMS for Tremors:

TMS may help in treating tremors by targeting brain areas associated with motor control, like the primary motor cortex or basal ganglia. The idea is to either inhibit overactive neural circuits or enhance underactive circuits that contribute to tremor activity.

For example:

  • Parkinson’s disease tremor may be related to disrupted communication between the basal ganglia and the cortex. TMS could modulate this communication to reduce tremor.
  • Essential tremor is thought to involve abnormal brain activity in the cerebellum, and TMS might help adjust the neural firing patterns contributing to the tremors.

Below is the abstract from a 2024 review study that reported spectacular results when using Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) for Parkinson’s symptoms and tremors specifically.

Hellyon. 2024 Jun 12;10(12):e32799. Differential symptom cluster responses and predictors to repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation treatment in Parkinson’s disease: A retrospective study

Abstract

Background: Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is an effective noninvasive neuromodulation technique for Parkinson’s disease (PD). However, the efficacy of rTMS varies widely between individuals. This study aimed to investigate the factors related to the response to rTMS in PD patients.

Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the response of 70 idiopathic PD patients who underwent rTMS for 14 consecutive days targeting the supplementary motor area (SMA) in either an open-label trail (n = 31) or a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial (RCT) (n = 39). The motor symptoms of PD patients were assessed by the United Parkinson’s Disease Rating Scale Part III (UPDRSIII). Based on previous studies, the UPDRSIII were divided into six symptom clusters: axial dysfunction, resting tremor, rigidity, bradykinesia affecting right and left extremities, and postural tremor. Subsequently, the efficacy of rTMS to different motor symptom clusters and clinical predictors were analyzed in these two trails.

Results: After 14 days of treatment, only the total UPDRSIII scores and rigidity scores improved in both the open-label trial and the RCT. The results of multiple linear regression analysis indicated that baseline rigidity scores (? = 0.37, p = 0.047) and RMT (? = 0.30, P = 0.02) positively predicted the improvement of UPDRSIII. The baseline rigidity score (? = 0.55, P < 0.0001) was identified as an independent factor to predict the improvement of rigidity.

Conclusion: This study demonstrated significant improvements in total UPDRSIII scores and rigidity after 14-day Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) treatment, with baseline rigidity scores and RMT identified as predictors of treatment response, underscoring the need for individualized therapy.
