Brief Summary:
Many studies showed that clinical pilates exercises has positive effects on static and dynamic balance of different populations. It was suggested that this type of exercise reduce the risk of falls and physical damage. It also helps prevention of kyphotic posture. Parkinson's patients have both balance and postural problems but no study investigated the effect of clinical pilates exercises for this population. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of clinical pilates exercise program on postural control and balance in individuals with Parkinson's disease.
Detailed Description:
The patients will be randomly assigned into two groups: Clinical Pilates (CP) Group and Classic Physiotherapy (CF) Group. Both groups will be treated for 8 weeks. The evaluation of the patients will be done before the beginning of exercise program and will be repeated at the end. Static balance of patients will be evaluated with Single Leg Stance Test and Tandem Stance Test, dynamic balance with Functional Reach Test (FRT) and 30 second Chair Stand Test. Postural control and balance will also be evaluated with Berg Balance Scale and functional capacity by Timed Up and Go Test. Symptom severity and treatment complications of the patients will be evaluated with United Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale.
