Abstract

Purpose

The objective of this pilot study was to compare the effects of water-based exercise to conventional land-based exercise on postural sway and quality of life in people with Parkinson’s disease.

Methods

Twenty people (male) with Parkinson’s disease were randomly divided into two groups of ten. Both groups carried out an 8-week (three sessions per week) physical exercise protocol. Postural sway and quality-of-life parameters of two groups were measured in pre- and post-intervention sessions.

Results

The between-group analyses indicate a greater reduction and thus improvement in the mean velocity of sway (p = 0.01) and an increase in the quality-of-life scores (p < 0.001) in the water-based group compared to land based.

Conclusions

Water-based exercises were more beneficial than land-based exercises when considering improvements to postural stability and the quality of life of those with Parkinson’s disease. The aquatic therapy is a promising intervention in the rehabilitative care of people with Parkinson’s disease.
