| Those who practised the martial art twice a week had fewer complications and better quality of life than those who didn't, the researchers say. |
| Experts say the findings back up previous studies on the benefits of exercise for those with Parkinson's. |
| The study, from Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, monitored the health of hundreds of Parkinson's patients for up to five years. |
| One group of 147 people practised regular tai chi while another group of 187 did not. |
| The researchers found that the disease progressed more slowly in the tai chi group on measurements of symptoms, movement and balance. |
| This group also saw fewer falls, less back pain and dizziness, with memory and concentration problems also lower than in the other group. |
| At the same time, sleep and quality of life continuously improved. |
| A previous trial of people with Parkinson's who practised tai chi for six months found greater improvements in walking, posture and balance than those not on the programme. |
| Writing in the Journal of Neurology Neurosurgery & Psychiatry, researchers say their study shows "that tai chi retains the long-term beneficial effect on Parkinson's disease". |
| They say tai chi could be used to manage Parkinson's on a long-term basis and prolong quality of life, while still helping to keep patients active. |
