While physical activity, physical therapy, and structured exercise have long been considered effective treatments for Parkinson’s disease, their efficacy has been difficult to scientifically establish due to the inability to measure changes in key functional motion indicators like gait and overall balance – which has, in turn, hampered patients’ motivation to adhere to these therapies as part of their treatment. Not to mention the relationship between physical activity and current pharmacological treatment of Parkinson’s disease, which remains a significant question mark without data to support or refute medication efficacy.
