The training program is individually adapted according to the type and degree of disability, as well as the level of table tennis skills and the goals each participant wishes to achieve through training. For some, this represents a continuation of regular table tennis practice, promoting social interaction, physical activity, maintaining health, improving playing quality, and achieving greater satisfaction. For others, it is a gradual return to table tennis as a safe form of physical activity, helping to improve balance, coordination, physical fitness, self-confidence, and social inclusion.


3. BrainSpin Project – Table Tennis as an Innovative Rehabilitation Approach for Parkinson’s Disease. Read more »

Table tennis is an enjoyable, engaging, and accessible activity that combines motor, cognitive, and social components, making it particularly suitable for the rehabilitation of Parkinson’s disease. Unlike repetitive exercises, table tennis is an open-skill activity that requires continuous adaptation to an unpredictable environment. This stimulates motor planning, visuospatial processing, and executive functions, which are often impaired in Parkinson’s disease. Studies show that table tennis can improve motor symptoms, balance, and daily activities in people with Parkinson’s disease. Since August 20, 2025, NTK Škofije has been one of the partners in the BrainSpin project, funded by the European Commission.
