Shake and walk: new combo therapy tested to help kids with CP move better
NCT ID NCT04630392
Summary
This study is testing if a short session of whole-body vibration, when added to treadmill walking, can help children with cerebral palsy walk better and reduce muscle stiffness. Researchers will measure walking speed, step length, and muscle tightness in about 20 children before and after the combined therapy. The goal is to see if this one-time combination provides more benefit than treadmill training alone.
