Community Exercise Program for Parkinson's Disease
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests whether a group exercise program designed for Parkinson's disease patients can be safely and practically run in a community setting. The program combines different types of movement and exercise to help improve function and quality of life.
