Music-based walking therapy for brain injury recovery
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study tests whether listening to rhythmic music beats while walking at home can improve walking speed, balance, and overall well-being after a traumatic brain injury (TBI). It is designed for people who can walk on their own but at a slower pace.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had a moderate to severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) and needed inpatient rehabilitation.
- You can walk independently, with or without a walker or cane.
- Your comfortable walking speed is slower than 1.4 meters per second (about 3.1 miles per hour).
- You can follow instructions and walk with a normal alternating leg pattern.
- You have no uncontrolled health conditions (like heart, lung, or seizure problems) or hearing issues that would affect your ability to participate.

This Phase 2 study tests whether high-intensity, treadmill-based step training can improve walking after a traumatic brain injury (TBI). It may help people who are still having trouble with walking speed and can follow instructions.
This study tests whether spinal stimulation (a gentle surface stimulation on your back and legs) combined with walking practice can help improve your mobility after a traumatic brain injury. It's a research treatment that may help you walk better and with more confidence.
This trial tests a virtual reality program that combines thinking and walking exercises to help improve your balance and walking speed. It may be a good fit if you have a traumatic brain injury and walk more slowly than usual.
This trial tests whether a supervised aerobic exercise plan is safe and helpful for people recovering from traumatic brain injury (TBI). It may help improve physical fitness and functioning through regular walking and aerobic training.
This study tests a home-based program that combines physical exercise with brain-training games to help people recover after a traumatic brain injury. It aims to improve both movement and thinking skills in a comfortable home setting.
This study tests a new balance training program called NEUROBALANCE to help improve postural control in people who have had a traumatic brain injury. It uses a non-invasive brain stimulation technique (TMS) to see if it can help improve balance and walking.
