“…The assessment of FOG-Q was performed by all participants to corroborate their consistent experience of freezing episodes ( Gilat, 2019 ). Additionally, with permission from the Movement Disorder Society (MDS), the Thai-translated adaptations of the MDS-Unified Parkinson’s Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS) part III during the “on” period and the Timed Up and Go (TUG) test were employed to establish baseline measurements against those obtained immediately post-stimulation ( Jagota et al, 2022 ).…”

IntroductionCombined plantar pressure and vibratory stimulation has been shown to decrease freezing of gait (FOG) episodes and improve spatiotemporal gait parameters compared to single stimulation in Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients with FOG. However, the effect of combined plantar stimulations on plantar pressure analysis has never been explored.MethodsForty PD patients with frequent FOG were allocated to either FOG shoes embedded with a 100 Hz vibratory stimulation at the Achilles tendons and a soft thickened silicone pad at the hallux and sole, or sham shoes with a non-working vibratory motor and a flat non-pressure silicone pad (20 patients per arm) while seated for 96 s. The objective gait and plantar pressure analysis were measured immediately after the stimulation. Outcomes included the normalized percentage of changes in percent FOG (%FOG) and plantar pressure in the heel-strike and push-off phase that were compared between pre- and post-stimulations.ResultsThe FOG shoes group showed significantly decreased %FOG (81.5 ± 28.9% vs. 6.8 ± 22.1%, p < 0.001), plantar pressure in the heel-strike (47.8 ± 43.7% vs. 4.3 ± 9.8%, p < 0.001), plantar pressure in the push-off (57.7 ± 59.6% vs. 6.2 ± 11.6%, p < 0.001), force time integral (FTI) (40.9 ± 32.5% vs. 6.6 ± 17.3%, p < 0.001), and decreased heel contact time (19.3 ± 12.3% vs. 22.7 ± 32.5%, p < 0.001) when compared to the sham group. There was a strong negative correlation between %FOG and peak plantar pressure (r = −0.440, p = 0.005), plantar pressure in the heel-strike (r = −0.847, p < 0.001).ConclusionOur study demonstrated that the FOG shoe could decrease FOG episodes by improving the heel-strike pressure, toe push-off and normalized heel-to-toe plantar pressure, suggesting that modification inputs from the peripheral sensory systems might significant improvement in FOG in PD.

Parkinson's Disease (PD) affects nearly a million Americans, a number that will increase over the coming decades. L-DOPA has been the most effective treatment. While available medical therapies help control symptoms during the initial years following diagnosis, higher doses are required over time, increasing side effects and decreasing control of symptoms. As a result, patients suffering from PD become refractory to conventional treatments. The authors anecdotally observed a significant symptom reduction in a patient who practiced Centering Prayer (CP), taught by Hesse. As a last choice, the experience led the authors to apply teaching CP to four current patients to improve their quality of life. We studied these patients before and after practicing CP, assessing tremors by electromyography records and applying the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS). A control group of four PD patients with high UPDRS, who were not trained in CP, were also selected. During the active phase of PD symptoms, electromyography (EMG) testing was conducted before and 30 minutes after the CP session in the test group. EMG testing was also done on the control group during the active phase of symptoms, and the groups were compared for a reduction in EMG amplitude. All patients showed a significant reduction in EMG amplitude after the CP session. There were significant UPDRS score decrements at 30 and 45 minutes, lasting up to 60 minutes. These important clinical and EMG results were not found in the control group. With these results, our group plans to collect greater samples of PD patients for proposing CP practice as an alternative treatment for this Disease.
