This trial tests whether a specific breathing exercise, the Buteyko technique, can improve oxygen levels, reduce breathlessness, and enhance exercise ability in patients with pneumonia caused by smog. It compares this approach to incentive spirometry, a standard device that encou…

This trial tests whether adding the Tupler Technique — a method using abdominal splinting and targeted exercises — to barre-based core training can better reduce abdominal separation (diastasis recti) in postpartum women. Fifty-eight women with mild-to-moderate separation will be…

This trial tests two rehabilitation methods—blood flow restriction training and instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization—in people recovering from ACL reconstruction. Both are added to standard physiotherapy to see which better reduces pain, improves knee strength and range o…

This study compares Tai Chi and Qi-Gong, two gentle movement therapies, to see which better improves balance and motor function in people with stage I Parkinson's disease. Fifty participants aged 50 to 65 will receive either Tai Chi or Qi-Gong alongside standard physical therapy …

This study tests if leg exercise (like pedaling) is better than arm exercise for controlling blood sugar, weight, and stress in pregnant women with gestational diabetes. 108 women in their second trimester will exercise three times a week for eight weeks. The goal is to find a sa…

This study tests a therapy called VOJTA for children aged 2 to 6 with ataxic cerebral palsy, a condition that affects balance and coordination. The therapy uses gentle pressure on specific body areas to activate natural movement patterns. Researchers will compare VOJTA to standar…

This trial tests whether pressure biofeedback training—using a device that shows how hard you press—can reduce pain and improve muscle function better than bolster foam rolling in people with knee osteoarthritis. Forty-eight participants with moderate knee arthritis will do one o…

This trial compares two stretching techniques—myokinetic stretching and post facilitation stretching—for people with cervical radicular pain, a condition where neck pain shoots down the arm due to nerve irritation. About 40 adults aged 30 to 60 with radiating arm pain for over fo…

This trial compares two physiotherapy techniques—Stecco fascial manipulation and muscle energy technique—for people with sacroiliac joint dysfunction, a common cause of lower back and pelvic pain. Researchers will measure changes in pain sensitivity, range of motion, and daily di…

This trial compares two manual therapy approaches for mechanical neck pain—a common condition where discomfort stems from joints, discs, or muscles without nerve issues. One group receives standard cervical spine mobilization plus physiotherapy, while the other adds thoracic spin…

This trial compares whole-body vibration and Pilates, both added to standard physiotherapy, for people aged 18–40 with chronic non-specific low back pain lasting over 12 weeks. Over four weeks, researchers will measure changes in pain, balance, and lifting ability to see which ap…

This study compares two ways to treat chronic non-specific neck pain: telerehabilitation (online sessions) and supervised clinic-based rehab, both combined with pain neuroscience education. Researchers will measure pain intensity, fear of movement, and daily function in 45 adults…

This study tests whether a gentle, non-invasive nerve stimulation (called tVNS) applied to the ear or neck can improve arm movement, thinking, and quality of life when paired with standard therapy in people who had a stroke 3–6 months ago. About 54 adults who had their first isch…

This study tests a therapy called HABIT-ILE, which uses structured hand and leg exercises, to see if it can improve both motor skills and cognitive functions like memory and attention in children with spastic cerebral palsy. 42 children will receive 90 hours of therapy and be com…

This study tests whether using a soft robotic hand together with electrical stimulation can help stroke survivors regain hand movement faster than using either therapy alone. About 64 adults who had a stroke 3-6 months ago will receive 40-minute sessions three times a week for 8 …

This study looks at whether adding a technique called blood flow restriction (BFR) exercise to standard physical therapy can help people recover more quickly after total knee replacement. BFR uses a cuff to lightly restrict blood flow during low-weight exercises, which may help b…

This study compares two physical therapy methods for sacroiliac joint dysfunction, a common cause of low back and pelvic pain. One group gets standard kinetic control training alone, while the other adds Mulligan's mobilization with movement. Researchers will measure pain, range …

This study tests two rehabilitation methods—functional electrical stimulation (using mild electrical pulses) and mirror therapy (using visual feedback)—to help people who had a stroke within the last 6 months improve foot clearance and walking. 38 adults aged 18-85 will receive o…

This study tests whether adding pelvic coordination exercises to standard core strengthening helps people recovering from a stroke improve their trunk control and balance. Researchers will compare this combined approach to standard trunk exercises alone in 38 adults aged 45-60 wh…

This study tests a new rehab approach for people with incomplete spinal cord injury. It combines electrical muscle stimulation with augmented reality games during walking exercises. 70 adults aged 18-45 will be split into two groups: one gets the high-tech training, the other get…

This study tests two rehabilitation methods—mirror therapy (sensory augmentation) and mild brain stimulation (tDCS)—to improve arm and hand movement in stroke survivors. 36 adults aged 45-65 with chronic stroke will be split into three groups, each receiving different combination…
