Breathing therapy with walking practice for multiple sclerosis
Part of Brain & nervous system, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This study combines brief periods of breathing slightly lower oxygen with walking practice to see if it helps improve walking in people with multiple sclerosis (MS). The goal is to see if this combined approach boosts the benefits of walking therapy.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study tests whether brief, controlled low-oxygen episodes (called intermittent hypoxia) can improve motor function in people with MS. It may help strengthen walking and daily movement.
This study tests whether brief periods of breathing air with lower oxygen levels can help people with different stages of multiple sclerosis (MS). It aims to see if this approach is safe and maybe beneficial.
This study tests whether breathing short bursts of reduced oxygen (acute intermittent hypoxia) can improve hand function and nerve health in people with relapsing-remitting MS who have some hand weakness.
This study tests whether training the muscles used for breathing can help people with multiple sclerosis. It aims to see if this training improves breathing and overall health.
This study tests whether imagining or watching walking movements can improve walking ability in people with multiple sclerosis. It focuses on low-risk, non-invasive mental exercises that may help retrain the brain and muscles.
This study is testing a new way to help people with progressive multiple sclerosis improve their walking and motor skills. If you have mild to moderate trouble walking and meet some other health criteria, you may be able to join.
