Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disease that affects a significant portion of the population over 60 years. The symptoms promote a drop in quality of life and, consequently, a decrease of the independence on activities of daily life. In order to minimize the main signs and symptoms of the disease and promote an improvement in the quality of life of these patients physical activity programs has been proposed as a complementary therapy to drug therapy, and PROPARKI is one of the pioneers of this proposal in Brazil.
