The impact of dance activities on the health of persons with Parkinson's disease in Sweden.

Parkinson's disease (PD) is associated with motor and non-motor symptoms that negatively influence the person's quality of life. To reduce illness and increase quality of life, alternative treatments of PD such as dance might be experienced as beneficial. The aim of this study was to explore experiences of how a dance program in Sweden influences perceived physical, social, and emotional wellbeing in persons with PD.
