Bottle breathing exercise for Parkinson's: muscle strength and balance
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This trial tests if a simple breathing exercise using a bottle can strengthen the muscles you use to breathe and improve your balance. It may help people with Parkinson's who can walk on their own.
