Summary

Body weight supported treadmill training (BWSTT) is an important rehabilitative choice for neurologically impaired subjects such as Parkinson's disease (PD). The aim of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness of different percentages BWSTT on gait, balance, quality of life and fatigue in moderate to advanced PD.

Conditions

  • Parkinson Disease

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

0% unweighed BWSTT

30 minutes conventional rehabilitation program (CRP) including range of motion, stretching and strengthening exercises for upper and lower extremities, balance and mobility exercises. After CRP, participants were provided 30 minutes 0% unweighed BWSTT sessions including a 5 minutes warm - up and cool - down period for each session, 5 days a week, for 6 weeks (totally, 30 sessions).

BEHAVIORAL

10% unweighed BWSTT

30 minutes conventional rehabilitation program (CRP) including range of motion, stretching and strengthening exercises for upper and lower extremities, balance and mobility exercises. After CRP, participants were provided 30 minutes 10% unweighed BWSTT sessions including a 5 minutes warm - up and cool - down period for each session, 5 days a week, for 6 weeks (totally, 30 sessions).
