Parkinson's Program
The Activate center in Geneva offers a Parkinson's protocol combining neurological rehabilitation on GIGER MD® and personalized functional support. From 2-3 sessions, patients regain balance and gait stability. An integrative approach to slow progression and improve patient quality of life.
1. Benefits of GIGER MD® for Parkinson's
The GIGER MD® is a Swiss medical device that simultaneously mobilizes all four limbs in a rhythmic and symmetrical movement while eliminating the effects of gravity thanks to the patient's supine position. This therapy is based on repeated stimulation of still-functional neural networks, in order to reorganize motor circuits and restore lost functions.

For patients with Parkinson's, the benefits are visible quickly: from the first 2 to 3 twenty-minute sessions, spectacular improvements are observed, particularly recovery of balance and smoother gait. This is explained by the GIGER MD®'s ability to induce neuronal plasticity and reactivate disturbed motor circuits.
Positive effects include:
Restoration of coordination and gait stability
Reduction of tremors and rigidity
Decrease in postural disorders and fall risk
Improvement of cognitive and vegetative functions
The guided repetition of movements, synchronized with visual and auditory stimuli, activates spinal pre-motor oscillators and promotes communication between sensory afferents and motor neurons.
2. Functional medicine support
In parallel with motor exercises, we offer a personalized nutritional and metabolic approach. Since Parkinson's disease is associated with increased oxidative stress, intestinal dysbiosis and neurotransmitter deficiencies, correcting these imbalances is essential.
We use:
Targeted antioxidants (glutathione, coenzyme Q10, NAC, curcumin)
Essential fatty acids to support neuronal membranes
B vitamins (especially B6, B9, B12) for dopamine metabolism
Probiotics and prebiotics to support the microbiota and the gut-brain axis
Enzymatic cofactors to improve L-DOPA utilization
This integrative approach aims to slow disease progression and significantly improve quality of life.
3. Who is concerned?
This protocol is intended for people:
Diagnosed with Parkinson's, at any stage
Post-diagnosis, wishing to maintain their autonomy
Suffering from gait or posture disorders
Experiencing chronic fatigue, stiffness, anxiety or loss of motivation

To learn more
The Activate Center offers a free information session with our specialist to assess needs, explain GIGER MD® therapy mechanisms and propose personalized support.
GIGER MD® device sessions are provided by a licensed physiotherapist, in a secure and professional therapeutic setting. They may be covered by health insurance, provided they are prescribed by the treating physician in the form of a delegation order.
