Abstract: Parkinson's disease (PD) is a chronic and progressive neurodegenerative disease that affects the central nervous system. The main symptoms are tremor at rest, postural instability, rigidity, bradykinesia and cognitive deficit, which results in changes in gait and difficulty in carrying out activities. daily life. Group physiotherapy contributes to improving quality of life, socialization and self-esteem, facilitating aspects of gait, such as the phenomenon of freezing and mobility in general. Objective: To verify the influence of group physiotherapy on trunk mobility, gait and freezing phenomenon in patients with Parkinson's disease. Methodology: This is a case report of the PD group diagnosed on average 3 years ago. Therefore, on the Hoehn & Yahr (HY) scale they are between 2.0 and 2.5 and were treated at the Clínica Escola de Fisioterapia do Cesupa, three times a week, from February to June 2023, performing group physiotherapy to improve trunk mobility, gait and freezing phenomenon. The group was evaluated by the Romberg and Timed get up and go tests every month. Results: An average age of 60 years was found, reporting in the HY between 2.0 and 2.5, in a qualitative analysis an improvement was noticed in gait patterns with a reduction in the freezing phenomenon and in the swing phases an increase in amplitude, which reduced short and quick steps, proving to be safer. As for the quantitative analysis, in the timed get up and go, the pre-treatment took 15 seconds and at the end of June 10 seconds, and the Romberg test in the post-treatment was 30 seconds compared to the pre-treatment of 15 seconds.
