What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published

Summary

This study explores whether Basic Body Awareness Therapy (BBAT) — a program of gentle, mindful exercises — can change walking patterns and foot pressure in healthy young adults aged 18 to 25. Participants will attend twice-weekly sessions for 12 weeks, and researchers will measure gait speed, step length, and how weight is distributed across the feet. The goal is to see if this low-intensity therapy can improve walking symmetry and balance, with effects lasting three months after training ends.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Basic Body Awareness Therapy (BBAT)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a simple exercise program to improve walking quality and balance in healthy people.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study in healthy volunteers, so results may not apply to people with medical conditions. The therapy may show no meaningful change.
