Wearable suit effects on balance and walking in cerebral palsy
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests a wearable suit (TheraTogs) designed to improve balance and mobility in children with cerebral palsy. It may help them walk more steadily and move more easily.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have cerebral palsy affecting one or both sides of the body (spastic type)
- You can walk without using walkers or other aids, but may have some difficulty
- You have mild muscle stiffness (less than level +1 on a standard scale)
- You can understand and follow simple instructions
- You have not had Botox injections in your legs in the last 6 months

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study compares three types of physical therapy for children with cerebral palsy: robotic walking training, water therapy, and standard physical therapy. The goal is to see which approach best improves walking and movement.
This study tests whether a serious video game can improve walking and movement in children with cerebral palsy. It may help your child practice safer, more effective walking skills through guided play.
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 trial tests whether wearing a special suit (Mollii suit) helps children with cerebral palsy who can walk move better and feel less discomfort. It aims to see if the suit can improve daily life.
This study tests whether a mild electrical stimulation applied to the skin over the spine can help children with cerebral palsy improve their movement and walking. Researchers will compare children who receive this treatment with children who don't have cerebral palsy to see if it makes a real difference.
