Dave James, ND, BSc | Neuroplasticity & Vitalism in Parkinson’s Disease: Integrating Pharmacology with Naturopathic Neuro-Restorative Therapies

2026 NYANP Annual Conference – Recorded on Saturday, October 3, 2026

Parkinson’s disease presents complex neurodegenerative challenges requiring both symptomatic management and neuroprotective strategies. This presentation reviews the pharmacology and clinical use of levodopa–carbidopa while exploring naturopathic approaches that support neuroplasticity and neuronal resilience. Evidence-informed integrative strategies—including nutrition, mitochondrial support, frequency-based therapies, hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT), ketamine-assisted neuroplasticity protocols, and emerging regenerative approaches such as very small embryonic-like stem cells (VSELs)—will be discussed. Attendees will learn how naturopathic physicians can integrate conventional pharmacotherapy with vitalistic and restorative therapies to support function, quality of life, and long-term neurological health in patients with Parkinson’s disease.
