Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Eye-closed sway area (ECSA)

    ECSA is assessed with posturography and represents the transformation of the area described by a subject's centre of pressure in eye closed standing. It is used to assess postural stability.

    1 month

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Trunk Lateral Flexion (TLF)

    1 month

  • Kyphothic Angle (KA)

    1 month

  • Unified Parkinson Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS)

    1 month

  • Six-minute Walking Test (6MWT)

    1 month

Study Arms (2)

Experimental

EXPERIMENTAL

Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment (OMT)+ Multidisciplinary Intensive Rehabilitation Treatment (MIRT) Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment (OMT) is manipulative therapy that was performed once a week along 30 days.

Procedure: Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment (OMT)+ Multidisciplinary Intensive Rehabilitation Treatment (MIRT)

Control

SHAM COMPARATOR

Sham Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment (SOMT)+ Multidisciplinary Intensive Rehabilitation Treatment (MIRT) Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment (OMT) is manipulative therapy that was performed once a week along 30 days.

Procedure: Sham Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment (SOMT)+ Multidisciplinary Intensive Rehabilitation Treatment (MIRT)

Interventions

OMT: 4-week manual therapeutic program with a weekly session of osteopathic examination and manipulation of somatic disfunctions in ambulatory setting. MIRT: 4-week physical therapy with 4 daily sessions (1 hour each), 5days/week, in a hospital setting. The first session comprises cardiovascular warm-up activities, relaxation, muscle stretching, exercises to improve the range of motion of different joints, exercises to improve the functionality of the abdominal muscles, and postural changes in the supine position. The second session includes exercises to improve balance and gait using stabilometric platform,treadmill plus, crossover and cycloergometer. The third and fourth pertain occupational and speech therapy.
