NCT02816619

Brief Summary

There is growing interest for physical activity in Parkinson's disease in order to improve mobility and function of these patients. It seems from previous studies that difficulty, intensity and specificity of physical exercises are important parameters conditioning the effect of physical activity on cerebral plasticity and clinical improvement. Thus, the aim of this study is to evaluate the benefits of a Personalized Physical Activity coaching program, including scheduled and frequent follow up associated with progressive readaptation of exercise intensity depending on individual performances (during 3 months), versus free practice of physical activity in Parkinson's disease.
