All
Phase N/A
Clinical Trial Summary: This study aims to help people with Parkinson's disease (PD), a condition that affects movement, by reducing a symptom called *Freezing of Gait* (FOG). FOG is when someone suddenly feels like their feet are stuck to the ground. Participants will be divided into two groups: one focusing on agility exercises that improve turning, and the other on strength-building exercises. The goal is to improve walking and balance in daily life. Key Points:
  • Participants will attend training sessions three times a week for 6 weeks.
  • Individuals will wear special sensors to track their movement and balance.
  • Eligibility requires being 50-80 years old and having mild to moderate PD with gait issues.
Participants will have assessments before and after the study to measure improvements. If you're unsure about your eligibility, the study team can help you with a screening. This study could offer a chance to improve your mobility and daily activities.
