Summary

This is an exploratory study to assess the impact of whole body vibration on backward walking speed in people with Parkinson disease.

Conditions

  • Parkinson Disease

Interventions

OTHER

Whole body vibration (WBV)

WBV is a platform that vibrates while a person stands or sits and performs exercises. The WBV session will consist of 5 sets of 60 seconds set at 6 Hertz (frequency), 3 mm (amplitude) while performing mid-squats. There will be a 1 minute rest in between each set. These parameters were chosen as commonly used parameters in previous studies of WBV in people with PD.

OTHER

Control

Mid-squats performed on level ground 5 repetitions of 60 seconds with 1 minute rest in between each set.
