Back muscle training for posture problems in Parkinson’s
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This trial tests a special way to strengthen the back muscles to improve posture problems in people with Parkinson’s (or similar conditions). It may help reduce postural deformities and improve movement comfort while your Parkinson’s treatment stays steady.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have Parkinson’s disease or an atypical Parkinson-like condition
- You are 18 years or older
- You have posture issues involving your neck/back (measured by the study team)
- Your Parkinson’s severity score is between 10 and 25 (as measured in clinic)
- Your Parkinson’s medicines have been unchanged for at least 8 weeks
- You can do thinking/memory screening with a score above 25

This study tests whether training the muscles used for breathing and bending forward can improve posture in people with Parkinson's who have a forward stoop. It aims to see if this exercise program can help reduce trunk flexion and improve overall function.
This study tests whether a special exercise program can improve your posture, flexibility, and spine health. It is designed for people with mild to moderate Parkinson's disease who are stable on their medications.
This trial tests whether a special training program that uses artificial intelligence can help improve posture in people with Parkinson's disease who have a forward bend or lean to one side. If you have Parkinson's and a noticeable postural problem, this might be a way to try a new approach to rehabilitation.
This trial tests whether a strength training program can improve function and body chemistry in people with Parkinson's. It may help if you are in the middle stages of the disease and have stable motor symptoms.
This trial tests a home-based exercise platform to help people with Parkinson’s disease improve their movement and quality of life. You will use a tablet or computer at home to do guided exercises and have your progress tracked.
This study tests a new way to help people with Parkinson's disease improve their balance and standing ability through guided exercises in a lab setting. Researchers want to see if this approach can safely help reduce balance problems and fall risk.
