Vibration therapy for walking in children with cerebral palsy
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests whether a special vibrating platform can help improve walking in children with cerebral palsy. It may help strengthen muscles and coordination.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Diagnosed with cerebral palsy.
- Age must be between 2 and 11 years old.
- Must have a GMFCS level of I or II (can walk with or without help).
- Cannot have epilepsy.
- Cannot have serious blood circulation problems or recent surgeries.
- Must be a patient at a center that works with the University of Almería (like the Interactúa center).

This study tests whether treadmill training, with or without whole-body vibration, can improve walking and movement in children with spastic cerebral palsy. If you qualify, the goal is to see whether this exercise approach is safe and helpful.
This study tests whether whole body vibration (standing on a gently shaking platform) plus leg casting can help children with cerebral palsy improve ankle flexibility and walking. It is for children who already need casting for tight ankles.
This study tests whether a noninvasive electrical stimulation applied to the outside of the body, paired with physical therapy, can improve movement and walking for people with neurologic conditions. You may be asked to complete regular therapy sessions and simple movement tasks while the team measures your progress.
This trial tests whether walking practice with real-time feedback (“biofeedback”) can improve how people with cerebral palsy move their legs. It’s designed to help with safer, more efficient walking during treadmill training.
This study tests a motor learning program to help children with Cerebral Palsy improve their walking. If your child has a walking goal and a caregiver who can help at home, this could be a good fit.
This trial tests whether virtual reality exercises can improve balance in people with cerebral palsy. It is designed for young adults who can walk independently and have spasticity on one side of the body.
