Vibration therapy for balance and quality of life with nerve damage from chemo
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Brain & nervous system, Cancer, Pain clinical trials.
This study tests if whole-body vibration therapy can improve balance, reduce fall risk, and enhance quality of life for people who have nerve damage from chemotherapy. It may help with symptoms like numbness, tingling, or weakness.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
