NCT ID NCT07230015

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests a new 8-week program that combines motor imagery (mentally practicing movements) with vestibular rehabilitation (exercises for balance and dizziness) in 30 people with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis. The goal is to see if this combination improves balance, cognitive function, and quality of life better than standard care. Participants must have mild disability and mild cognitive or balance issues.

What this could mean

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

Active substance

motor imagery and vestibular rehabilitation (behavioural program)

What this could lead to

If it works, this could offer a new, drug-free way to improve balance, thinking, and daily life for people with multiple sclerosis.

What could go wrong

This is a small, early-stage trial with only 30 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The program requires active participation and may not help all types of MS symptoms.
