Abstract

In the last years the role of sensory rhythmic stimulation (SRS) on motor rehabilitation in PD has become a new line of interest for researches and therapists given the promising results reported in scientific literature. This kind of strategies present a whole range of features which make it very appealing for its daily use, namely, they are easy to use, they have not distorting side-effects, and, chiefly, their effectiveness have been reported either in presence as in absence of antiparkinsonian medication.
