This trial tests whether using virtual reality (a computer-generated 3D environment) can help improve balance in children with cerebral palsy. It involves regular sessions using VR games designed to challenge balance, with the goal of making daily movements easier.
This trial uses virtual reality games shown on a screen to help children with cerebral palsy improve their walking and balance. It is designed for children aged 4 to 10 who can stand with some support and are able to follow game instructions with help from a therapist.
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.
This study uses virtual reality tasks to understand and compare balance and movement in children with long-term inner-ear (vestibular) problems versus those without. It may help doctors learn what supports best balance and safety during daily activities.
This study tests whether a virtual reality balance-training program improves how well people control their posture and respond to sudden balance challenges. You would do standing balance tests and training sessions with head and weight-shift movements.
