Summary

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

Detailed description

Postural disorders are very common in Martinique, in patients often having an atypical form of the Parkinson's disease. Physiotherapy rehabilitation is essential because these disorders are generally non-dopa-sensitive. Isokinetic muscle strength may reduce postural disorder in Parkinson's disease. Isokinetic device rehabilitation promotes maximum muscular contraction at constant speed; the resistance of the machine continuously adapting to the force developed by the subject. As the spinal muscle strength gain is superior to conventional post-rehabilitation motor function, the improvement in postural instability should be greater than that achieved with conventional rehabilitation. A better postural support should thus result in a decrease in the risk of falling and an improvement in the quality of walking.
