Monte de Caparica, AlmadaAges 18 years+ - NCT05800470Recruiting
Brain-training with light sensors to improve walking in Parkinson’s
This trial tests a “neurofeedback” training program using a special light-sensing cap (fNIRS) to help improve balance and walking in people with Parkinson’s disease. You may also do guided walking practice mentally (imagery training), and your ability to walk and balance will be measured.
Taipei, None SelectedAges 40–85 - NCT06850662Recruiting
Backward walking observation training for stroke recovery
This trial tests whether watching videos of backward walking and then practicing it can help improve your walking quality after a stroke. It is designed for people who are at least six months past their stroke and can already walk independently.
TaipeiAges 20–80 - NCT07705906Recruiting
Robot-assisted leg training for mobility recovery
This trial tests a robot device to help people with leg weakness from stroke, spinal cord injury, or joint surgery improve their walking. It may be a good option if you are medically stable and can work with the robot safely.
Dhaka, Dhaka DivisionAges 18–70 - NCT07478146Recruiting
Aerobic exercise for brain and movement in Parkinson's
This study tests whether moderate aerobic exercise (like brisk walking or cycling) can improve thinking, memory, and walking ability in people with Parkinson's disease. It also looks at how exercise affects blood flow in the brain.
São Paulo, São PauloAges 40 years+ - NCT07201974Recruiting
Virtual reality for walking rehab after stroke
This study tests whether virtual reality (an immersive computer game) can help improve your walking after a stroke. You will use a VR headset while walking on a treadmill to make rehab more engaging and effective.
Laval, QuebecAges 40–84 - NCT06959277Recruiting
Walkasins study for balance with peripheral neuropathy
This trial tests if a wearable device called Walkasins can improve balance and walking in people with peripheral neuropathy. It may help if you have trouble with balance and your foot size fits the device.
Mesa, ArizonaAges 55 years+ - NCT06473987Recruiting
Virtual reality training for better walking after brain injury
This trial tests a virtual reality program that combines thinking and walking exercises to help improve your balance and walking speed. It may be a good fit if you have a traumatic brain injury and walk more slowly than usual.
West Orange, New JerseyAges 18–65 - NCT07529093Recruiting
Mobilization and Movement Training for Sacroiliac Joint Pain
This trial tests whether a combination of hands-on joint mobilization techniques and specific movement control exercises can reduce pain and improve function in people with sacroiliac joint dysfunction (pain in the lower back/buttock area where the spine connects to the pelvis). You would receive these treatments over several weeks and be measured on pain relief, movement, walking, and daily activities.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 45–64 - NCT07193355Recruiting
