No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Parkinson's disease has innumerous motor symptoms that impacting on the functional level of the patient, such as impairment in functional mobility and balance . Previous studies have already aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of whole body vibration, but without methodological criteria. The use of whole body vibration may be an alternative for the treatment of Parkinson's disease. Therefore, the objective of the study is to verify which frequency of vibration is able to improve the balance and mobility of patients with Parkinson's disease.
