Abstract

Background Exercise is seen as an effective intervention to combat the reduction in postural stability and increased chance of falls in Parkinson's patients. However, there is some debate as to where this exercise should take place. This article critically appraises and evaluates a systematic review looking at home-based exercise versus centre-based exercise for improving balance and functional outcomes.
