Treadmill training may unlock freezing in Parkinson's patients
NCT ID NCT05511597
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether a split-belt treadmill (where each leg moves at a different speed) can reduce freezing of gait during turning in people with Parkinson's disease. 26 participants completed a 4-week training program that included practicing everyday turning scenarios. The goal was to see if improvements in the lab also help with turning at home.
