帕金森病(PD)是一种进行性、神经退行性运动障碍，常伴有平衡和行走能力减退以及生活质量下降。最近的研究表明，舞蹈可能是一种有效的替代传统锻炼的方法，可以解决帕金森病患者关心的这些领域。该综述总结了舞蹈对帕金森病患者的益处方面相对较少的文献，讨论了目前关于舞蹈干预的适当剂量的已知情况，并推测了舞蹈可能传递益处的潜在机制。显然，有必要进行更多的研究，使用更大的样本量来检查舞蹈对帕金森病患者的潜在长期影响。
Parkinson disease (PD) is a progressive, neurodegenerative movement disorder that is often accompanied by impaired balance and walking and reduced quality of life (QoL). Recent studies indicate that dance may be an effective alternative to traditional exercise for addressing these areas of concern to individuals with PD. This review summarizes the relatively scant literature on the benefits of dance for those with PD, discusses what is currently known with respect to appropriate dosing of dance interventions, and speculates upon potential mechanisms by which dance may convey benefits. There is a clear need for additional research using larger sample sizes to examine the potential long-term effects of dance for those with PD.
