Focus instructions for balance in Parkinson's rehab
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 50 and 70 years old.

- You do not have freezing of gait (your feet don't get stuck when you try to walk).
- You are able to take part in the study when your medication is working well.

This trial tests different ways to help people with Parkinson's disease improve their balance. If you have mild to moderate Parkinson's and are between 50 and 80 years old, you may be able to join and learn which approach works best for you.
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.
This study compares two types of rehabilitation exercises—one focused on balance and one on doing two tasks at once—to see which helps people with Parkinson's disease more. It may help improve your balance and daily activities.
This study looks at how the balance system and brain work together to cause freezing of gait in Parkinson's disease. By understanding these factors, researchers hope to find better ways to help people walk more steadily.
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.
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.
