Could light exercise with a squeeze help Parkinson's patients move better?

NCT ID NCT07221994

Summary

This small, early-stage study is testing a new exercise method for people with advanced Parkinson's disease. Four participants will do light leg-stepping exercises while wearing special cuffs on their thighs that gently reduce blood flow. Researchers want to see if this 8-week program is safe and might help improve movement, strength, and daily life. The main goal is to check for safety and gather information to plan larger future studies.
