Water workouts may ease Parkinson's symptoms, new study suggests

This study tests whether an 8-week aquatic high-intensity interval training (HIIT) program can improve balance, physical function, and muscle health in people with Parkinson's disease. Fifty-six participants with mild to moderate Parkinson's will do Tabata-style exercises in a pool three times a week, compared to standard care. The goal is to see if this water-based exercise is safe and effective for reducing fall risk and slowing muscle loss.
