An increasing number of scientific studies testify to the effectiveness of rehabilitative treatment in slowing down the worsening of the motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease. This leads to an immediate improvement in the quality of life of the patient with Parkinson Desease and to a lower need to increase the pharmacological dosage in the short to medium term.
The most evident motor symptoms for this kind of patients are in the axial part of the body which supports the postural base for the movement of the limbs and the transfers in space and are decisive in limiting the functionality and autonomy in the ADL.
The most recent scientific literature shows how a rehabilitative path for parkinsonian patients should have the following characteristics: aerobic, goal-based, cognitive, intensive, multidisciplinary. Many approaches and protocols have been defined and recognized as effective in the management of the motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease. Also the rehabilitation approach according to the Bobath Concept offers a frame of reference suitable for the assessment and treatment of the postural problems of the Parkinsonian patient and the planning of a specific treatment based on the last evidence.
