Abstract
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a progressive movement disorder characterized by degeneration of the substantia nigra pars compacta. Physical therapy (PT) is effective for managing symptoms of PD, but there are limiting factors to the PT episode of care. The purpose of this systematic review is to analyze the effects and neurobiology of supplemental activities such as dance, yoga, and martial arts on motor and non-motor symptoms of PD. Database searches were utilized to identify evidence, followed by PEDro scoring. Here, 35 articles were analyzed, and 25 articles were included for review of current data regarding nontraditional movement interventions for PD. We conclude that supplemental activities are effective for significantly improving motor and nonmotor symptoms of PD. These findings are particularly useful for dance/movement therapists working with the Parkinson’s population and with the older adult population.
期刊介绍:
American Journal of Dance Therapy informs the international mental health community on the latest findings in dance/movement therapy theory, research, and clinical practice by presenting original contributions, case material, reviews, and studies by leading practitioners and educators in the field. The journal, reflecting the dramatic expansion of the profession over the last half-century, publishes timely articles on working with new populations, changing goals, innovative techniques, and new methods of training. Current professional issues, outcome research, and assessment tools are also examined and evaluated. This biannual forum encourages dance/movement therapists and allied mental health professionals to test their theoretical premises and share their ideas. It is a valuable resource for administrators, psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, and creative arts therapists in the disciplines of music, art, and drama.
