Abstract :
The aim of this study was to relate the cognitive status with the balance in individuals with PD exposed to VR training, and to compare their results to those of another group who underwent an exercise protocol without the use of VR. Our findings did not show a significant effect of cognitive framework on postural control in elderly patients with PD who underwent the two different exercise protocols.
