About this trial
In the sponsor's words
Motor imagery training facilitates the neural plasticity with increasing the neuronal cortical pathways in the brain. Motor imagery training is an effective way in stroke survivors. However, its effects in persons with multiple sclerosis (MS) are not known. Additionally, telerehabilitation based motor imagery training is very rare treatment way which requires more research. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the effect of telerehabilitation based motor imagery training on gait and balance performance of the persons with MS. The participants will be allocated into three groups, including motor imagery training, wait-list control group, and healthy control group. All the assessments will be performed before and after the training in the 8-week motor imagery training group. The participants in the control group will underwent the assessment with a 8-week interval. The healthy participants will be assessed only one. The motor imagery training will be designed for the individual basis with following standard protocols. It will be applied two times a week for 8 weeks. The first one and/or two sessions will be performed in the clinic, the other will be performed at the patients' home with a video-conference telerehabilitation technique.
