Parkinson's may produce many different symptoms and it would help to know what sort of relief you are hoping for. Acupuncture enjoys a wide following world wide and there is a considerable # of studies in the traditional medical literature about its benefits for many conditions including back pain. To my knowledge - however - there is no data on whether or not acupuncture helps with the symptoms of Parkinson's disease itself.

IT DOESN'T CURE BUT RELEASE THE SYMPTOMS
