About this trial
In the sponsor's words
the purpose of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of educational kinesiology program to improve cognitive impairement, manual dexterity and bimanual coordination in patients with relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis. the study evaluated some domain of cognition as (attention \& concentration, figural memory, reaction behavior and logical reasoning) manual dexterity and bimanual coordination were also evaluated of individuals with multiple sclerosis who went through the traditional as compared to others who used educational kinesiology training as part of their therapy.
