This study tests whether resistance training (like lifting weights) can improve how your brain and muscles communicate, and whether that helps your walking. It's designed for people with MS who have some walking difficulties.
This study tests a multimodal exercise program for people with multiple sclerosis. It aims to improve mobility, strength, and overall well-being through guided exercises you can do at home.
This trial tests whether learning mindfulness skills can help people with multiple sclerosis manage pain better. If you have MS and pain, you might learn techniques to reduce discomfort and improve well-being.
This trial tests whether a program of aerobic and resistance exercise can improve immune function in people with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS). If you have RRMS and are not very physically active, this study may help you understand how exercise affects your MS.
This trial tests whether a structured exercise program can reduce nerve damage markers and improve brain health and daily function in people with MS. If you're able to exercise, it may help slow disease progression and improve your quality of life.
This study tests two types of mental and physical training to help reduce nerve pain in people with multiple sclerosis. It compares motor imagery (practicing movements in your mind) with sensorimotor training (hands-on exercises) to see which helps leg pain more.
