Physical Therapist or Physiotherapist 's  Response
Dear Sir/ Madam,

Thank you for posting your query.

You can consult a neurologist, who will start her the dose of L-dopa which will control the symptom of parkinsonism.

Apart from this she can start taking the physiotherapy. Physiotherapist will asses her movement and function. Depending on that she will train her on reducing the rigidity, coordination, balance, walking, posture.
She requires support while moving in and around the house. avoid falls
Encourage her to do activities of daily living like bath, dressing up, eating by herself, group exercise.
All this will make her confident, flexible in her movement and also improves her strength in the muscle. And also this will not let her go in depression and surely improve her well-being.

Hope you find my answer informative. Your reply with thank you note will be very much appreciate.

Wishing your mother a speedy recovery!!

With best wishes,
