Objective: To study the effects of short-term group physiotherapy protocols on motor functional variables in subjects with Parkinsonism. Methods: A quasi-experimental, controlled, non-randomized, open label study, with consecutive arms for one group (n = 6) and parallel arms for the other (n = 9). One group (n = 9) observed by the researchers, underwent group physical therapy once a week at a rehabilitation center for 5.5 to 7.5 months. Another group (n = 6) did not undergo physical therapy for a period of 5 months (control phase) and, consecutively, underwent group physical therapy twice a week for 12 weeks. Both groups were assessed with the Berg Balance Scale, Timed Up and Go Test, 5-Times Sit-to-Stand Test and 6-Minute Walk Test. Results: In all the variables analyzed, there were no statistically significant differences between the values measured in the assessments before and after the interventions (physical therapy once or twice a week) and the control phase. Conclusion: A short-term group physical therapy protocol, with a frequency of 1 or 2 times a week, may not be enough to improve motor control people with Parkinsonism.
