Inclusion criteria
* Patients diagnosed with multiple sclerosis confirmed using the 2017 McDonald criteria. * Patients who have the technological means to conduct online sessions and the autonomy to do so. * Patients with cognitive capacity that allows them to sign the informed consent form. * Patients with an internet connection and a device compatible with the Rehub tele-rehabilitation platform (desktop computer, laptop, or tablet). * EDSS level less than or equal to 6.5.
Exclusion criteria
* Participants who are currently undergoing RHB at a center. * Participants who have undergone RHB during the two months prior to the start of the program. * Patients with physical or mental comorbidities that may limit their participation in the rehabilitation program.

About this trial
In the sponsor's words
The goal of this clinical trial is to assessing safety and the occurrence of adverse effects during tele-rehabilitation (TRHB) in people with multiple sclerosis with an EDSS score of 6.5 or lower. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Intervention using TRHB is considered safe and without adverse effects. * Intervention using TRHB has a high degree of self-adherence, an impact on physical activity levels and self-efficacy in exercise, and a positive effect on quality of life, mood, and perception of fatigue. Researchers will compare the tele-rehabilitation with rehabilitation based solely on physical activity recommendations. Participants will complete three weekly online rehabilitation sessions and must attend three follow-up visits.
