Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07451210Recruiting
Blood flow restriction therapy after ankle ligament surgery
This study tests whether a special blood flow restriction device used during physical therapy helps people recover better after ankle ligament repair. You would do physical therapy as usual, but with a cuff on your upper leg that gently limits blood flow during exercises, which may help strengthen muscles more quickly.
Lubbock, TexasAges 18–65 - NCT04809064Recruiting
Compare open vs arthroscopic surgery for unstable shoulder with bone loss
This trial compares two surgery approaches for people with a traumatic, unstable (dislocating) shoulder when they also have moderate bone loss. It may help identify which method restores stability better and with fewer problems for the right patients.

Testing faster rehab after large rotator cuff surgery
This study tests whether an accelerated (faster) rehabilitation plan after surgery works as well as standard care for people with a large, multi-tendon rotator cuff tear. It may help you recover function sooner, depending on how your tear and health fit the study rules.
San Antonio, TexasAges 65 years+ - NCT05880108Recruiting
Behavior program to help COVID recovery in Veterans

Galveston, TexasAges 18–79 - NCT06225245Recruiting
Spinal cord stimulation for arm recovery
This study tests whether a device placed on the spinal cord (called an epidural stimulator) can help improve arm and hand function in people with chronic spinal cord injuries. The goal is to boost nerve activity and make rehabilitation more effective.
Houston, TexasAges 22–65 - NCT06289569Recruiting
Home therapy for recovery after stroke-related dementia
This trial tests a home-based therapy program for people who have had a stroke that led to vascular dementia. The therapy focuses on improving arm and hand movement, and it is done remotely with a caregiver's help.
Houston, TexasAges 18–110 - NCT06329531Recruiting
Validating a tool for cancer survivors in rehab
This study tests a new questionnaire that helps occupational therapists understand the needs of cancer survivors. It is for patients already receiving care at a physical medicine and rehabilitation (PMR) clinic to see how well the tool works.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06349941RecruitingPhase 3
Heart failure rehab from home using video visits
This study tests whether a home-based cardiac rehab program using video visits and a smartphone app can help people with heart failure recover and feel better. It may be a good option if you have been hospitalized for heart failure recently and want to take part in rehab from home.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06543277Recruiting
Nerve stimulation with hand therapy for spinal cord injury
This trial tests a safe, non-invasive nerve stimulation on the ear combined with arm and hand therapy to see if it can improve movement and function for people with neck-level spinal cord injury who still have some hand ability.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07041775Recruiting
MINT video game training to improve walking after stroke
This study tests a new video-game–style training called MINT to help people who have had a stroke walk better. If you have trouble walking because one leg is weaker or slower than the other, this training might help improve your balance and coordination.
Dallas, TexasAges 18–85 - NCT07364773Recruiting
Motivational interviewing to boost rehab in spinal cord injury
This study looks at whether motivational interviewing—a supportive conversation style—can help patients with spinal cord injury (SCI) participate more fully in their rehab therapy. If you are an adult with SCI receiving inpatient rehab at certain hospitals, you may be able to join.

What taking part in a rehabilitation study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.

Common questions
- Are there rehabilitation clinical trials in Texas?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 23 recruiting rehabilitation studies with a site in Texas, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a rehabilitation study in Texas?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Texas to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Texas, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a rehabilitation trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
Not the right time?
New rehabilitation studies open in Texas regularly. Set up a health profile and we’ll quietly watch for studies that fit you and email you when one opens.
Clin2 helps you find and understand clinical trials and does not provide medical advice. Study data comes from ClinicalTrials.gov. Talk with your doctor about whether a specific trial is right for you.
