Summary

The investigators intend to compare the effects on the resolution of visual and auditory sensory cues on the resolution of freezing of gait in patients with idiopathic Parkinson's disease.

Conditions

  • Parkinson Disease

Interventions

DEVICE

Laser shoes

Path Finder® is a device that is fixed to the noses of the patient's shoes using a rubber strap, and laser-marks the place to be stepped on the ground of the opposite foot when walking. It is installed on both feet to relieve the symptoms of freezing of gait.

DEVICE

Metronome

The metronome, which makes a sound with a constant beat, is known to have an effect on the symptoms of Freezing of Gait in Parkinson's disease patients. At a rate of 80 beats per minute, the volume of sound that the patient can fully recognize is set to resolve the freezing of gait using the metronome sound.
