There is not enough evidence to assess the effectiveness of occupational therapy in Parkinson's disease.
A Cochrane review included 2 studies with a total of 84 subjects. Although both trials reported a positive effect from occupational therapy, all of the improvements were small.
Comment: The quality of evidence is downgraded by imprecise results (few patients) and by several sources of bias.
