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 have Parkinson's disease at stage II or III (you can walk on your own but have some balance problems).
- 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 study compares two types of rehabilitation exercises for people with Parkinson's disease: one focusing on balance (vestibular) and one combining balance with thinking tasks (dual-task). It aims to see which is better at improving balance and daily function. If you are between 40 and 75, have mild to moderate Parkinson's, and can do cognitive tasks, you might be eligible.
This study looks at whether a special balance-focused exercise program can help people with Parkinson's disease start walking more smoothly and activate the right muscles. The exercises may help improve your walking and balance.
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.
This study tests whether a 6-week exercise program can help people with Parkinson's disease who experience freezing of gait. You would exercise three times a week to see if it reduces freezing and improves turning.
