Parkinson's disease (PD) is a chronic and progressive degenerative disorder of brain commonly seen among the elderly.

In this review, we retrospected the scientific or evidence-based-medicine advances of application and research for modern treatment of PD by CAM, especially traditional Chinese medicine in categories.
