Virtual games and vibration aim to help kids with muscle disease walk stronger
NCT ID NCT07338812
Summary
This study tested whether adding virtual reality games or whole-body vibration to standard physical therapy could help children with Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Fifty children, aged 6 to 10, were split into two groups to try one of these add-on therapies for three months. Researchers measured if these fun, high-tech tools could improve leg strength and balance better than physical therapy alone.
