Can the Tango slow the progression of Parkinson’s disease? Blinking until you’re blind.

Why do some people and some brains recover and why others don’t? Can teaching tango to Parkinson’s patients slow the progression of the disease? It’s called Blepharospasm and it’s a rare disease that makes people blink uncontrollably leading to blindness. We follow one woman who has not been able to see for 25 years as she regains her sight.
