SUMMARY

Parkinson's disease is one of the most prevalent motor disorders in the world . The disease is progressive and has no known treatment.

Also, this study is the first of its type to make a continues treatment protocol for patient with static tremors. SO the purpose of these study will To investigate the effect of sensory electrical stimulation on resting tremors in Parkinson's patients.
