NCT ID NCT07575074
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether special eye and balance exercises can reduce dizziness, motion sickness, and improve quality of life in people with inner-ear balance problems. Thirty-two adults with motion sickness or vertigo will do either standard habituation exercises or a new optokinetic training program five times a week. The goal is to see if the new training improves balance, gaze stability, and motion sickness better than standard exercises.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
optokinetic training protocol combined with gaze and postural stabilization exercises
What this could lead to
If this works, it could offer a non-drug way to reduce motion sickness and improve balance and quality of life for people with inner-ear balance problems.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial with only 32 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The training is time-intensive (five times a week) and may not be practical for all.
