Effect of acceptance and commitment therapy on fear of falling and physical activity in Parkinson's disease: a randomised controlled trial.

We hypothesised that ACT would lead to a significant reduction in FOF and an increase in physical activity levels compared with standard care. Additionally, this study will also examine the relationship between reduced FOF and improvements in balance and motor function. Our results will provide valuable evidence to support the effectiveness of ACT in reducing FOF and promoting physical activity among patients with PD, and if validated, ACT could be recommended as a beneficial intervention to enhance the quality of life and reduce fall-related morbidity in patients with PD.
