Adapted physical activity
Intervention2 papers5 findings
Adapted physical activity improves walking distance in a 12-week human trial in Parkinson's disease. A human study after cardiac rehabilitation reports improved balance and walking speed and reduced pain at two months, but no grip-strength improvement at 12 months.
