The Parkinson360 System by NeuroFT™ is a neurological assessment and treatment process for people with Parkinson’s disease. It is specifically designed to maximize their ability and well-being, and to improve their quality of life.

Everything starts with the 2-hour Parkinson360 assessment from NeuroFT™, a comprehensive and detailed evaluation of various aspects of your functionality: gait, balance, muscle tone, handwriting, fine motor skills, tremor, and rigidity. Each of these aspects is crucial for understanding how the disease impacts your daily life, not just treating the symptoms.

The Parkinson360 assessment is the specialized version of the NeuroFT assessment™ and is used as the foundation for defining the treatment plan and therapeutic diagnosis.

NeuroFT™ is the only specialized and certified clinic in Costa Rica for neurological assessment and treatment for people with Parkinson’s disease.
NeuroFT™ is known for its extensive knowledge of Parkinson’s disease, which is why the clinic offers two different systems for its treatment and assessment, which are: NeuroFT Parkinson Assessment and Parkinson 360 NeuroFT Assessment. Each of these systems offers a variety of services.

The comprehensive assessment includes both systems.
