Turning practice improved mobility in early-stage Parkinson’s disease

After 12 weeks, the turning-practice group completed a mobility test 1.79 seconds faster than the conventional-exercise group, after accounting for starting scores.After 12 weeks, the turning-practice group completed a mobility test 1.79 seconds faster than the conventional-exercise group, after accounting for starting scores.
