Investigating Therapies for Freezing of Gait Targeting the Cognitive, Limbic, and Sensorimotor Domains.

The cognitive and proprioceptive treatments appeared to improve different aspects of FOG. Thus, either of these interventions could potentially be a viable treatment for FOG. However, although the results were statistically significant, they could be sensitive to the relatively small number of participants in the study. Considering the significant results together with nonsignificant trends in both FOG and gait measures, and given equal time for each intervention, proprioceptive training produced the most consistent indications of benefits in this study.
