How I beat my Parkinson's Disease

Welcome

I’m Chris Lacey. As crazy as it sounds, I’ve effectively recovered from Parkinson’s Disease (and have been free of all Parkinson’s symptoms – without medication – for eight and a half years to date.)

This is my story of desperation, determination and defeat of this bloody disease. I refused to accept that my path was a life sentence of medication and gradual decline. After learning everything I could find from mainstream medicine about Parkinson’s Disease, I looked outside ‘mainstream’ into the newest scientific research and alternative approaches.

I’m proud of what I have achieved, and how I have been able to help many Parkys in the last decade or so, either locally in Tasmania, Australia, or around the world, who have heard my story or been referred to me.

This website collates a lot of my info that I hope may be an inspiration to those diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease (and their carers) to learn more and to know that freedom from all PD symptoms is possible.

It has been arranged as I wrote updates:
2015: my story pre-diagnosis, diagnosis, and the path off all medication
2018: my story in the three years afterwards, with continued research and lifestyle changes
2024: an update to come! [My website editor is being a funny bugger] But still no PD and fighting fit at 75!

Obviously, your story and your path will be different – so good luck, fight like hell and investigate all avenues! Hopefully the content of this site will help you to begin the process of your own journey with Parkinson’s.
