About this trial
In the sponsor's words
Backward walking training can be a useful treatment approach, providing novel balance and gait challenges. It can lead to improve balance, gait and functional mobility in neurologic populations. However, the effect of backward walking training has net been investigated in people with multiple sclerosis.
