# Improve balance through virtual reality

**Goal (in five words):** Improve balance through virtual reality

**Official Title:** Virtual Reality Verses Conventional Physical Therapy in Parkinson's Disease Patients

**Trial ID:** [NCT07359716](https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT07359716)

## Key Facts

- **Phase:** NA
- **Status:** RECRUITING
- **Study Type:** INTERVENTIONAL
- **Sponsor:** Montiha Azeem
- **Target Enrollment:** 62 participants
- **Start Date:** 2026-01-20
- **Completion Date:** 2026-03-15
- **Conditions:** Parkinson s Disease
- **Interventions:** Conventional Physical Therapy, Virtual Reality-Based Physical Therapy
- **Intervention Types:** BEHAVIORAL

## Summary For Families

The trial is testing whether virtual reality physical therapy can improve balance, gait and everyday mobility in people with Parkinson's better than conventional physical therapy, with the goal of reducing falls and making walking and balance easier. The VR sessions use simulated environments and real-time visual feedback to guide balance and gait exercises and track progress, while the conventional arm uses standard strength, balance and walking training; VR is meant to boost engagement and deliver precise movement cues that complement usual medications like levodopa. Eligible participants are men and women aged 45 to 65 with Parkinson's and good cognition, MMSE 24 or higher; people with other neurologic diseases, recent lower limb fractures, recent major peripheral surgery or trauma, or spinal cord injury are excluded.

## Eligibility

- **Minimum age:** 45 Years
- **Maximum age:** 65 Years
- **Sex:** ALL
