Abstract:Gait and postural deficits are the most common impairments in patients with Parkinson’s Disease (PD). These impairments often reduce patients’ quality of life. Equistasi® is a wearable proprioceptive stabilizer that converts body thermic energy into mechanical vibration. No systematic reviews have been published investigating the influences of Equistasi® on gait and postural control in patients with PD. This review aimed to examine the effects of proprioceptive focal stimulation (Equistasi®) on gait deficits a… Show more
