Perceptions of individuals with Parkinson's disease about a telerehabilitation protocol performed during the COVID-19 pandemic: a qualitative study.

Apprehension and fear were present during the implementation of the protocol, however, previous experience with face-to-face physical therapy and the team allowed feelings of happiness, contentment, welcomeness, and satisfaction with the possibility of resuming the activities. The individuals actively participated in the program with commitment and co-responsibility, but the lack of physical contact, limited equipment, and constant concern for the safety and individuality of the participants must be emphasized.
