Description

This interventional study aims to assess self-sufficiency in patients with Parkinson's disease in the spa setting using the new Czech Functional Efficiency of Self-sufficiency Test (FEST) and to validate the test in this population. It also aims to evaluate changes in cognition, stability, fear of falling, and gait after specialized spa care and to analyze correlations between self-sufficiency and these outcomes.

    Patients undergo therapies led by clinical experts in the field of physical therapy. Individual therapies include soft tissue therapies, exercises aimed at increasing/maintaining range of motion, increasing muscle strength, balance, cognition, and self-sufficiency.
