Plain-Language Summary

The goal is to see whether an online self-management program or hands-on task-related training better improves participation in daily activities and quality of life for people with early, mild Parkinson's. The online program teaches self-management skills, goal-setting and guided home exercises to help people adapt and practice daily tasks remotely, while the on-site task training gives supervised practice of reaching and other functional movements to retrain coordination and confidence; both approaches aim to boost real-world function and are meant to complement, not replace, medications like levodopa. The trial is looking for people aged 45 to 70 with mild idiopathic Parkinson's, Hoehn and Yahr stage 1,2, who have no cognitive impairment or severe depression, no major sensory or upper-limb problems or severe tremor, and who have not had physical or occupational therapy in the past year.
