Summary
This study compares two different deep brain stimulation (DBS) settings in 30 people with Parkinson's disease who already have DBS implants. The goal is to see which setting better improves walking and balance problems. Participants will try both settings, and their symptoms will be measured using a standard Parkinson's rating scale.
