Summary

Patients with Idiopathic Parkinson's disease have balance and gait problems due to sensory and motor impairments. In the literature, there are lots of studies including various approaches for rehabilitation of these parameters such as sensory interventions, conservative treatments, neurophysiological approaches and motor imagery. However, taking into account of literature, there is no study investigating the effects on balance and gait of cervical mobilization by stimulating proprioceptors and vestibular receptors. Therefore, the aim of this study is to investigate the acute effect of cervical mobilization on balance and gait in patients with idiopathic Parkinson's disease.

Conditions

  • Idiopathic Parkinson's Disease

Interventions

OTHER

cervical mobilization

Cervical mobilization techniques were applied in the study. Within the scope of application; rotation with traction, lateral gliding, anterior-posterior gliding with traction, bridging and stroking techniques to the paravertebral muscles were used. Mobilization were performed at grade A (mobilization in painless joint range) and grade B (continuous stretching at the end of the joint range). The mobilization were applied during 10 minutes. At the end of study all patients were received home-based exercise tailored to each individual's needs which include stretching, strengthening, balance and gait exercise and posture exercise

OTHER

control

There was no intervention in the control group during study. At the end of study all patients were received home-based exercise tailored to each individual's needs which include stretching, strengthening, balance and gait exercise and posture exercise
