Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the combined effects of non-invasive neuromodulation (specifically transauricular Vagus Nerve Stimulation) with exercise interventions to improve physical function and quality of life in individuals with Parkinsons Disease.

Primary Outcome

In our study, we will utilize the Movement Disorder Society-Sponsored Revision of the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS) Part III. This scale, widely used in the clinical and research settings, helps us evaluate the motor symptoms of Parkinson's Disease. The MDS-UPDRS Part III scale ranges from 0 to 132, with 0 representing no motor symptoms and 132 representing severe motor symptoms. Therefore, a higher score on the MDS-UPDRS Part III scale indicates a worse outcome, reflecti
