The treatment of Parkinson's disease is based on several factors, particularly the integration of an exercise program. These promote the maintenance of independence and help to maximize the effect of the antiparkinsonian medication, which provides a better quality of life.

The functions and benefits of exercise are huge. In particular, it allows:

• improve muscle flexibility,

• range of motion

• the coordination,

• the balance,

• elocution and dexterity,

• to strengthen the extensor muscles, which among other things help keep the back straight,

• to act on stiffness and postural problems,

• to reduce fatigue,

• promote muscle relaxation and relieve cramps,

• to act on stress, depression, insomnia, constipation.

• Studies also suggest that exercise may slow the progression of Parkinson's disease.

The indoor curling is a sport in which players slide stones on wheels on a floor towards a target, made up of concentric circles. Two teams, each made up of four players, slide in turn the stones towards the house: a circular target marked on the ground. Each team has eight stones and the goal is to accumulate the highest score of the match; points are awarded for stones that come to rest closest to the center of the house at the end of each round, which ends when both teams throw all their stones. A match may consist of eight or ten  innings.

Rachel McAdams, Harrison Ford, Patrick Wilson

When hard-working TV producer Becky Fuller (McAdams) is fired from a local news program, her career begins to look as bleak as her hapless love life. Stumbling into a job at Daybreak (the last-place national morning news show), Becky decides to revitalize the show by bringing on legendary TV anchor Mike Pomeroy (Ford). Unfortunately, Pomeroy refuses to cover morning show staples like celebrity gossip, weather, fashion and crafts - let alone work with his new co-host, Colleen Peck (Keaton), a former beauty queen and longtime morning show personality who is more than happy covering morning news. As Mike and Colleen clash, first behind the scenes and then on the air, Becky's blossoming love affair with fellow producer, Adam Bennett (Wilson) begins to unravel - and soon Becky is struggling to save her relationship, her reputation, her job and ultimately, the show itself.
