Mindfulness and dual-task training for Parkinson's with mild memory loss
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests a program that combines mindfulness with dual-task training (doing two things at once, like walking while talking) for people with Parkinson's disease who have mild memory or thinking issues. The goal is to see if this training can improve both movement and thinking.
