The Effect of Motor Imagery on Balance in Persons With Multiple Sclerosis

Status unconfirmed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Falls, Motor Imagery, Multiple Sclerosis, Balance, Fatigue

In brief

This study will investigate if the use of motor imagery to practice a balance task is as effective as physically practicing balance tasks as measured by the Berg Balance Scale (BBS) in persons with MS. A secondary purpose is to investigate if using a motor imagery balance intervention will limit fatigue typically experienced with physical movement in this population.
