Presence of other neurological or orthopedic conditions affecting gait or balance (e.g., stroke, spinal cord injury, severe arthritis).\n\nHistory of diabetes in second-degree relatives (as specified in your protocol).

Thirty patients (ages 45-75) with moderate Parkinson's (Hoehn \\& Yahr Stage III) will be randomly assigned to one of two groups:\n\nGroup 1 (Control): Receives a standard physical therapy program including stretching, strengthening, PNF, weight-shifting, and gait training.\n\nGroup 2 (Experimental): Receives the same physical therapy plus neuromuscular training using the Biodex Multi-Joint System and a custom anterior foot wedge.\n\nAll participants will train for 60 minutes, three times per week, for 8 weeks. Before and after the program, researchers will measure: balance (using the Biodex Balance System), gait (via Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale and motion analysis), and muscle activity in the trunk (using electromyography).
