NCT ID NCT06696040
First seen May 15, 2026 · Last updated May 15, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether using a passive kinesiotherapy device on the legs for 30 minutes can reduce spasticity (muscle tightness) and improve walking in people with conditions like cerebral palsy, stroke-related weakness, or spinal cord issues. About 80 participants will have their muscle tone, walking patterns, and fall risk measured before and after using the device. The goal is to see if this quick, non-invasive treatment offers immediate benefits.
