It remains a prevalent phenomenon for individuals to be diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease (PD), which represents a significant portion of the broader spectrum of neurological illnesses. To treat patients with a diverse range of non-motor and motor symptoms, various rehabilitative approaches are required. The efficacy of rehabilitation methods varies when used in isolation or in conjunction with other techniques. Physiotherapists specializing in neurological disease groups must implement a multifaceted and progressive rehabilitation program. One reason for this is that the symptoms of the disease exhibit periodic changes, and the needs of the patient vary with age. Given these considerations, the techniques employed, emerging developments, and targeted rehabilitation assume greater significance. It has been demonstrated that the physiotherapy techniques currently employed for treating PD are efficacious in addressing both motor and non-motor symptoms. These include dance therapy, Lee Silverman Voice Treatment, therapeutic exercises, proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF), mind-body therapy, non-invasive brain stimulation, dual task, mental motor imagery, acupuncture, aquatic exercises, curved walking, and technological rehabilitation.

摘要

It remains a prevalent phenomenon for individuals to be diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease (PD), which represents a significant portion of the broader spectrum of neurological illnesses. To treat patients with a diverse range of non-motor and motor symptoms, various rehabilitative approaches are required. The efficacy of rehabilitation methods varies when used in isolation or in conjunction with other techniques. Physiotherapists specializing in neurological disease groups must implement a multifaceted and progressive rehabilitation program. One reason for this is that the symptoms of the disease exhibit periodic changes, and the needs of the patient vary with age. Given these considerations, the techniques employed, emerging developments, and targeted rehabilitation assume greater significance. It has been demonstrated that the physiotherapy techniques currently employed for treating PD are efficacious in addressing both motor and non-motor symptoms. These include dance therapy, Lee Silverman Voice Treatment, therapeutic exercises, proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF), mind-body therapy, non-invasive brain stimulation, dual task, mental motor imagery, acupuncture, aquatic exercises, curved walking, and technological rehabilitation.
