Introduction. Motor changes is one of the main symptoms of Parkinson’s disease, among them stands the slowness in implementing the functional tasks. Objective. Check the interference of Aquatic Physical Therapy with the assistance of a sound device in trunk control and in agility displacement with the wheelchair in a patient with Parkinson’s disease. Method. Participated in this study a patient with diagnostic use of Parkinson’s disease with bradykinesia and limitation on the mobility in wheelchairs. The protocol lasted for 24 sessions in a liquid medium and the data were collected through pre -and post-intervention using stopwatch. Results. It was possible to observe improved trunk control and consequently improved time in displacement with the initial and final wheelchairs 47 seconds and 14 seconds. Conclusion. The Aquatic Physical Therapy has provided greater stability and trunk control influencing the shift to the wheelchair with greater agility and more rhythm. The metronome associated with the physical properties of the water could positively influence in the functional performance.
