Bradykinesia (Î²ÏÎ±Î´ÏÏ bradys, slow, ÎºÎ¯Î½Î·ÏÎ¹Ï kinÄsis, motion) Characterized by slowness of movement, it occurs in Parkinson's disease and other disorders of the basal ganglia.

In addition to a general slowness of movement, the bradykinesia of Parkinsonâs disease is typically demonstrated by a reduced or mask-like expression of the face (hypomimia or facial masking), a decreased blink rate of the eyes, and problems with fine motor coordination (for example, difficulties buttoning a shirt).
