Plain-Language Summary

The goal is to find out whether adding specific functional rotational exercises to regular physiotherapy can reduce fall risk and improve mobility and turning ability in people with mild Parkinson's. The approach adds guided trunk and limb rotation drills to conventional physiotherapy, aiming to boost core strength, trunk mobility, weight shifting, and balance reactions so people can turn and recover from slips more safely. The trial is looking for volunteers aged 50 to 70 with idiopathic Parkinson's at Hoehn and Yahr stages 1 to 2, with stable medications and cognition (MMSE ≥ 24), and it excludes advanced PD, major orthopedic or vestibular problems, or serious falls in the past six months.
