Parkinson's Disease (PD) is a brain condition affecting movement, mainly in people over 65. It causes movement problems like slow movements (bradykinesia), stiffness (rigidity), small movements (hypokinesia), and shaking (tremor). These problems can make it hard to do everyday activities, like buttoning a shirt or tying shoelaces. This study looks at how hand skills relate to balance and movement in people with PD. At least 26 people with PD will participate. They will be tested on hand skills, balance, and movement. Key Points:
- The study involves a few visits where participants will be assessed for their hand skills, balance, and movement.
- Participants must have only Parkinson's Disease and be in stages 1 to 3 on the Hoehn and Yahr Scale, a way to measure PD severity.
- Exclusion criteria include vision or hearing issues, orthopedic problems, or other health disorders that might affect the study results.
