Parkinson's trial: movement therapy with visual feedback
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This trial tests whether adding visual feedback to a therapy that involves watching and imagining movements can improve movement for people with Parkinson's. It may help those who have had Parkinson's for at least 5 years and can walk without help.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease for at least 5 years.
- Your Parkinson's medications have not changed in the past 4 weeks.
- You do not have memory or thinking problems (confirmed by a short test).
- Your Parkinson's is at an early to moderate stage (Hoehn & Yahr stage 3 or less).
- You are able to walk at least 5 meters (about 16 feet) without a cane, walker, or other help.
- You are not currently receiving advanced treatments like deep brain stimulation or pump therapy.

This trial tests whether adding visual feedback to exercise can help people with mild to moderate Parkinson's disease improve their movement and balance. It is designed for people who are only taking oral Parkinson's medications.
This study tests whether watching guided movement videos and then imagining those movements can improve walking and movement in people with Parkinson's. It may help if you are in early to moderate stages and don't have serious thinking or health problems.
This trial tests whether doing walking rehabilitation together with “motor imagery” (mentally practicing movements) can improve walking in people with Parkinson’s disease. It may help by training the brain and legs to coordinate movement more effectively.
This study tests whether watching videos of movements and imagining doing them – all from home via video calls – can help improve mobility and daily function in people with Parkinson's disease. It is designed for those at early to moderate stages with stable medication.
This trial tests a walking program to help people with Parkinson's disease improve their mobility and reduce symptoms. You may join if you can walk with some difficulty and have no other conditions that affect walking.
This trial tests a “neurofeedback” training program using a special light-sensing cap (fNIRS) to help improve balance and walking in people with Parkinson’s disease. You may also do guided walking practice mentally (imagery training), and your ability to walk and balance will be measured.
