About this trial

Parkinson's patients have postural disorders. These disorders are frequent in Martinique. Physiotherapeutic rehabilitation is essential because these disorders are generally non dopa-sensitive.

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Patient with Parkinson's disease or atypical parkinsonian syndrome

Age ≥18 years

Patient with postural disorders with a cervical arrow> 6cm in the sagittal plane and / or the axis C7S2 different from 0 in the frontal plane

UPDRS between 10 and 25/108.

Disqualifiers

Patient with a neurological condition other than parkinsonian syndrome

Patient with rheumatic disease

Patient with a history of trunk surgery

Patient with a brain stimulator
