Summary

This study looks at whether adding whole-body vibration (standing on a vibrating platform) to a standard home exercise program can improve balance, mobility, and reduce fall risk in people with Parkinson's disease. 68 adults aged 50-75 with mild to moderate Parkinson's will be randomly assigned to either vibration plus exercise or exercise alone for 8 weeks. Researchers will measure balance, walking, and joint position sense at the start, after treatment, and 8 weeks later.
