"Prescribed Ping Pong: Therapy for Neurodegenerative Disorders"
Dr. Antonio Barbera, a former obstetrician-gynecologist living with multiple sclerosis, has launched the NeuroPong program in Fort Collins, Colorado, prescribing ping pong as a treatment for neurodegenerative diseases such as dementia and Parkinson's. The program gathers regularly to play ping pong, collecting data to determine the treatment's effectiveness and has expanded to other cities and partnered with universities. Barbera's goal is to demonstrate the positive impact of the program and provide a supportive environment for those with neurodegenerative disorders.
