Balance training platform for peripheral neuropathy
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests whether a special balance-training platform can help people with peripheral neuropathy improve their balance and reduce their risk of falling. If you have this nerve condition, you may benefit from this non-invasive therapy that works like a video game for your feet.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 80 years old.
- You have been diagnosed with peripheral neuropathy (nerve damage that can cause numbness, tingling, or weakness in your hands or feet).
- You do not have other conditions that affect balance, like inner ear problems or Parkinson's disease.
- You do not have severe pain (score above 3 out of 10) anywhere in your body.
- You have not had bone or joint surgery in the last 6 months.
- Your neuropathy medication has been stable (no changes) for the past 6 months.

This trial tests if a special sensory training program can improve balance, walking, and daily function in people with type 2 diabetes who have nerve damage (neuropathy). It may help you move better and feel more steady on your feet.
This trial tests a new type of balance and walking training for people with multiple sclerosis. It uses technology to help improve your stability and gait, which may help you move more safely and confidently.
This study tests two types of balance training—one on a firm floor and one on a moving rolling board—to see which helps people with diabetes-related nerve damage improve their balance and reduce fall risk. The goal is to find the best way to strengthen balance and walking ability in people with long-standing diabetes.
This study tests a balance-retraining program that uses modified visual information to help people with neuropathy feel steadier while walking. You may benefit if your balance problems are linked to nerve-related sensitivity and you can safely participate in walking and standing exercises.
This study tests a low-cost balance training platform that uses augmented reality to help people with balance problems from stroke or other brain conditions. It aims to see if the platform is easy and safe to use at home with a training partner.
This study tests two new balance-training programs for people with Multiple Sclerosis. One program combines balance exercises with mild electrical stimulation on the legs, while the other uses walking exercises on a treadmill with special visual feedback. Both aim to improve balance and help your brain make new connections.
