This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This study is testing a handheld device designed to guide your arm and upper-body movements while you exercise at home. Half of the participants will use a device that provides haptic feedback—a gentle touch sensation that guides you through movements—while the other half will use a similar device without this guidance feature. The goal is to see whether the touch guidance helps people with Parkinson's disease perform rehabilitation exercises better.
Many people with Parkinson's disease struggle to access regular physical therapy because visits to therapists are expensive, time-consuming, and difficult for those in rural areas or without caregivers to drive them. This trial is testing whether a handheld device with touch guidance could bring effective rehabilitation into your home, making therapy more affordable and accessible.

You would come to sessions twice a week for 8 weeks, with each session lasting up to one hour. During these sessions, you would perform common upper-body rehabilitation exercises—like arm circles, shoulder presses, and lateral arm movements—while using the handheld device. One group will feel gentle touch feedback from the device guiding them through the movements, while the other group will use a device without this guidance feature.
