Brain stimulation and balance training for Parkinson's
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests whether combining a type of brain stimulation with balance exercises can improve walking and balance in people with Parkinson's disease. It may help you move more easily and reduce fall risk.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease
- You are between 40 and 80 years old
- You have been on your Parkinson's medications for at least 3 months without changes
- You are at Hoehn and Yahr stages 1 to 3 (mild to moderate symptoms)
- You can walk continuously for at least 10 minutes
- You can follow instructions and have no other major neurological conditions

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study tests a new, non-invasive brain stimulation method called Temporal Interference Stimulation (TIS) to see if it can improve walking and other symptoms in people with Parkinson's disease. It's for people who are in early-to-mid stages and can walk independently.
This study tests whether different types of gentle electrical stimulation on the scalp can help improve walking and balance problems in people with Parkinson's disease. The goal is to find a better way to support rehabilitation.
This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation treatment called repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), applied to a specific area of the brain, can improve walking and reduce 'freezing' in people with Parkinson's disease. The treatment is generally safe and does not require surgery.
This study tests a customized brain stimulation technique called rTMS to help people with Parkinson's disease walk better. It aims to boost your brain's natural reserves to improve mobility and daily function.
This trial tests a non-invasive brain stimulation technique (using gentle electrical currents and ultrasound) to see if it can help improve balance and movement in people with Parkinson's disease. It may be an option for those who are already on stable Parkinson's medications but still have moderate motor symptoms.
This study looks at how “high-frequency TMS” (a brain stimulation treatment) may change balance in people with Parkinson’s disease over a 6-month follow-up. You may be considered if you have mild to moderate Parkinson’s, have not had TMS before, and are medically stable.
