Summary

Parkinson's disease is a progressive disorders characterized by motor and non-motor symptoms. Actual medical treatments are symptomatic and have little efficacy on late stage axial motor symptoms. Non-pharmacological approaches are therefore essential from the disease onset.

Beside physiotherapy, to practice a regular adapted physical activity is crucial. To implement such a practice in everyday life implies to change habits. Patient Education programs are useful tools to help changing behaviors.

The study evaluate the effect of a program aiming to promote adapted physical activity in early stage Parkinson's disease by comparing patients receiving the program and patients on a waiting list. The hypothesis that the program will increase the one-week mean daily moderate to intense physical activity as measured with an actimeter.
