Virtual Reality Movement Training for Parkinson's Disease
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests whether using virtual reality—either alone or with others—can help improve movement and balance in people with Parkinson's disease. You would participate in rehabilitation sessions using VR technology while your symptoms and mobility are monitored.
