Summary

This study will enroll patients with Multiple Sclerosis and some difficulty with walking. The purpose of this study is to use Rhythmic Auditory Stimulation (RAS) a music therapy technique that provides rhythmic auditory cues (like a beat) to help improve a patient's movements, especially when walking.

Participants will be asked to participate in a walking program (WP) with Rhythmic Auditory Stimulation (RAS), or a WP without RAS.

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

Rhythmic auditory stimulation

RAS, a Neurologic Music Therapy technique developed to utilize rhythm and timing cues to assist in improving the basic, intrinsic rhythmic movements of gait.

OTHER

Gait Training

Continuous overground walking on a track for 30 minutes. Gait training will primarily consist of walking exercise under the supervision of an exercise physiologist.
