Mind over MS: can thinking about movement improve walking and reduce fatigue?

NCT ID NCT05377476

Summary

This study looked at whether adding 'motor imagery' (mentally practicing movements) and 'action observation' (watching videos of movements) to standard physical therapy could help people with multiple sclerosis walk better, feel less tired, and improve their balance. It involved 48 adults with MS who could walk with some difficulty but had not had a recent flare-up. Researchers measured how far participants could walk in 6 minutes, their fatigue levels, and their trunk control before and after the training.
