Community walking program for people with Parkinson's
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests whether a 24-week community walking program (brisk walking) can help people with Parkinson's disease who have trouble walking. If you join, you will walk regularly with others in your community and have your walking ability checked before and after.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
