Abstract
Parkinson's Disease (PD) is the second most prevalent disease worldwide, characterized as chronic-degenerative and progressive, manifesting in motor and non-motor symptoms, including cognition. Dance has been associated with positive effects in PD treatment. Thus, the aim of this study was to conduct an integrative review on the effects of dance on cognitive symptoms of PD, selecting 13 studies accessed from various databases. The results indicate that dance, as a complementary therapy for people with PD, shows promising evidence of improvements in cognition, while also highlighting limitations in available studies, such as small samples and lack of randomization, as well as difficulties in conducting meta-analyses due to low methodological quality and a limited number of available studies. Future research should address these limitations, including larger and more diverse groups, and employing rigorous designs to improve result reliability.
