A new article by Prof. Dr. Uroš Marušič, published in Alternator, reviews existing knowledge on the potential benefits of table tennis for brain health, movement and rehabilitation, with a particular focus on Parkinson’s disease.
The article explores how the combination of physical activity, coordination, rapid reactions, cognitive engagement and social interaction may make table tennis a promising activity in neurorehabilitation. It also discusses current evidence on motor function, balance, brain activity and neuroplasticity, while highlighting the need for larger and longer-term studies.
The topic is closely connected to BrainSpin, which investigates adapted table tennis as an engaging approach to supporting physical and cognitive function in people with Parkinson’s disease.
