摘要

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a chronic and progressive degenerative disorder of brain commonly seen among the elderly. As conventionally medical therapy is of limited relief and potential side effects

complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) has attracted growing public and professional attention. Therapies such as acupuncture

musical/rhythmic therapy and deep brain stimulation have been gradually proved positively in clinic. In this review

we retrospected the scientifific or evidence-based-medicine advances of application and research for modern treatment of PD by CAM

especially traditional Chinese medicine in categories.

Abstract
