Summary

The primary goal of this pilot study is to explore the feasibility of cyclic vibration (CV) of the lower extremity muscles to improve walking in individuals with gait deficits from multiple sclerosis (MS).

Conditions

Interventions

DEVICE

muscle vibration during walking

Baseline assessment of gait followed by 12 sessions (3/week for a month) of gait training with cyclic muscle vibration during walking emulating normal muscle activity of lower extremities in treatment group. Gait assessment both with and without muscle vibration were collected at follow-up after 12 sessions of gait training with muscle vibration.
