Can online coaching match In-Person training for core strength?
NCT ID NCT07775560
First seen Aug 20, 2026 · Last updated Aug 21, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study asks whether Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization (DNS) exercises—a method that targets deep core muscles—work as well when delivered via online video sessions as they do face-to-face. Healthy adults aged 18 to 35 will be randomly assigned to either in-person or telerehabilitation groups, both following the same 6-week program. Researchers will measure breathing, balance, posture, and core endurance before and after the program to see if the remote format delivers comparable benefits.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization (DNS) exercises delivered via telerehabilitation
- What this could lead to
- If effective, telerehabilitation could offer a convenient, accessible way to improve core stability and physical function without in-person visits.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage study in healthy adults, so results may not apply to people with health conditions. The success of telerehab depends on reliable internet and participant adherence.
