Summary

The randomized controlled trial is aimed to study the efficacy of treatment approaches based on developmental kinesiology models and its impact on balance, gait and mobility in people with mild to severe multiple sclerosis (pwMS). The main goal is to compare two out-patient physiotherapeutic methods, that will be attended 1-hour twice a week for one month and once a week for next two months (16 therapies in total). The efficacy will be assessed by a blinded independent clinical examiner using clinical examination and questionnaire survey one month before the therapy programme, immediately before and after the therapy and two months after termination of the therapy.
