Summary

People with Parkinson Disease (PWPD) have significant problems with velocity, safety and dual tasking during walking that may be secondary to poor automaticity. Sensory functions, especially visual dependence and proprioceptive integration are critical for efficient walking and are often impaired. This home program compares the use of multimodal sensory feedback during stepping and balance exercises in PWPD to a group without the sensory feedback performing the same basic exercises.

Conditions

  • Parkinson Disease

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

exercise+multi-modal sensory feedback (MMSF)

home program of 3 stepping exercises and 3 balance exercises with progression of speed, step distance and reduced vision. Real-time sensory feedback during ex. using ankle, wrist wts., laser on chest and mat with footpads and clickers (auditory feedback during stepping)

BEHAVIORAL

Exercise only

3 stepping and 3 balance exercises which are to progress in speed and distance of movement as well as progress to eyes closed while performing.
