Welcome at Efox!
To support our mission, we currently distribute an app with home exercises and movement advice, which is available in the App Store and Google Play Store.
The European Foundation for Health and Exercise promotes and supports Research and Healthcare Innovation projects that, not surprisingly, address the relationship between health and physical exercise(s). To do this, we seek funding and donations from private, corporate and government sources.
There are Dutch, English, French and Spanish versions of the app, Parkinson exercises. For the ordering of the DVD version of the app, please email us at info@efox.nl. This DVD is also available in Dutch and Italian. For donations: please contact us at: info@efox.nl or write to the European Foundation for Health and Exercise in the Netherlands.
About the App
This app is designed to be used by patients with Parkinson’s Disease and other forms of Parkinsonism as well as therapists working with patients as a source of advice and instructions for daily exercises and movements.
The advice and exercises are arranged in a number of functional domains, which can cause problems in the daily life of Parkinson’s patients.
From the results of scientific research and practical experience, it is becoming increasingly clear that targeted exercises and advice can lead to improvements in the following areas:
- Walking
- Posture
- Getting up from a chair
- Sitting down
- Turning in bed
- Balance
- Flexibility
- Endurance
- Relaxation
