Summary
This study tested whether walking on a split-belt treadmill (where each leg moves at a different speed) for four weeks could reduce freezing of gait during turns in people with Parkinson's disease. 26 participants completed the training, which also included practicing everyday turning scenarios. The goal was to see if improvements in the lab would carry over to real-life turning at home.
