Brain training game to improve balance in Parkinson's
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This trial tests a brain-training game designed to improve balance in people with Parkinson's disease. You may be eligible if you have mild to moderate Parkinson's, have had a fall and freezing episodes in the past year, and are not very active.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part

This study looks at balance problems in people with Parkinson's disease. It uses simple tests to understand what causes trouble with standing and walking, which may help find better treatments.
This study looks at whether different types of instructions (like focusing on your movements) can help improve balance for people with Parkinson's. It might help you move better and feel more steady.
This trial tests if targeted balance exercises can improve how the solus-muscle (a key muscle in the calf) activates when starting to walk. It is for people with moderate to severe Parkinson's who can walk on their own.
