Punching Out Parkinson’s

爱达荷州WWAMI学生志愿者与帕金森患者并肩作战

拳击手训练速度、力量和耐力来击败对手. At Rock Steady Boxing (RSB) in Moscow’s Gritman Medical Center, the opponent is Parkinson’s disease. 

Students in the WWAMI Medical Education Program 365滚球官网的一名学生于2019年开始在RSB做志愿者,以更多地参与社区活动并加强他们的医学教育. WWAMI是华盛顿大学医学院(UWSOM)的多州医学教育计划. The acronym, WWAMI, 代表与UWSOM合作,帮助教育该地区医生的各州:华盛顿, Wyoming, Alaska, Montana and Idaho.

Demsie Butler, 来自布利斯的爱达荷州二战二年级学生, helped forge the partnership between WWAMI and RSB; she recognized that RSB offered classmates a fresh twist on clinical service learning in Moscow.

“许多爱达荷州WWAMI临床志愿者的机会都是面向家庭医学或儿科的,” she said. 但《365体育滚球》很适合对运动医学或物理治疗感兴趣的医学生.”

Bailey Vail, 来自南帕的爱达荷州WWAMI一年级学生, 是RSB的志愿者协调员,支持巴特勒的愿景.

“这不是传统的临床志愿者经历, 但你是在和有医学诊断的病人打交道,” she said. “我们在一个不同的环境中与病人一起工作——健身房——并以一种非传统的方式帮助提高生活质量.

Rock Steady Boxing Fights Back

帕金森氏症是一种大脑退行性疾病,通常会影响50岁及以上人群的运动和平衡. 目前尚无治愈方法,但研究表明,运动可以减缓疾病的进展. 2006年在印第安纳州成立的RSB,现在是一个全国性的复制项目,通过拳击练习来提高大肌肉运动, core strength and rhythm.

Mary Jo Penberthy是格里特曼医疗中心的临床协调员 Martin Wellness Center and a certified RSB coach.

“All the things boxers work on – agility, hand-eye coordination, balance, 肌肉耐力——这些都是帕金森氏症患者难以做到的,” she said. “It’s an extremely inspiring program; to watch these individuals literally fight back against Parkinson’s.”

参与者按症状的严重程度进行组织. 爱达荷州WWAMI的一年级和二年级学生帮助平衡站的个人提供支持, 和他们一起在健身器材上锻炼,并亲自参加训练.

Both Sides Benefit

Katherin Pope, 来自Post Falls的爱达荷州WWAMI二年级学生, 发现在RSB做志愿者不仅丰富了她的教育, but was inspirational, as well.

“在RSB做志愿者为我们提供了一个将书本与现实生活联系起来的机会,”她说. 最重要的是,RSB使这种疾病人性化. 和那些拒绝接受诊断的老年人在一起真的让我对自己的挑战和我的能力有了新的认识.”

Matthew Burgstahler, 他是爱达荷州WWAMI的一年级学生,在沙点长大, 每周在RSB做志愿者,直到1月份新冠肺炎暂停手术. 他期待着在冠状病毒的威胁过去后和这个紧密团结的团队一起回到健身房.

“The people at RSB really mean a lot to me. 我不认为这是一个服务岗位,因为我从中得到了很多。. “我比大多数拳击手年轻三四十岁,虽然我们处于不同的人生阶段——他们在谈论孙子,我甚至没有自己的孩子——但我们每周都有这种体育训练,让我们聚在一起。.”

Penberthy从WWAMI的学生和帕金森患者那里听说,从心理健康的角度来看,RSB是多么重要.

“自2019冠状病毒病以来,我了解到这门课的社交方面是多么重要. 拳击手们都渴望回来,”她说.
