Action Observation and Motor Imagery Therapy in Parkinson's Disease

"Action observation; Patients will watch some exercises accompanied by music from a previously prepared video for 10 minutes. Exercises include 8-10 repetitions of abduction-adduction, horizontal abduction-adduction, flexion-extension and supination-pronation movements for the upper extremity, and stepping, forward-backward stepping, side stepping and ankle dorsiflexion movements for the lower extremity.~Motor imagery training; Patients will be asked to visualize the actions they watched in their minds for 10 minutes.~Then the patients will watch the video again and will be asked to perform the exercises while watching."

"Sham action observation; Patients will watch a video consisting of static nature photographs for 10 minutes with the same music.~Sham motor imaginary; Patients will think about the video they watched for 10 minutes.~Then, they will watch another video in which the exercises are performed only once, and they will be asked to do the exercises. They will be given enough time to do 8-10 repetitions."
