VR-treadmill Combined Intervention for Enhancing Mobility and Cognitive Function in Patients With Multiple Sclerosis

"VR is defined in general as a high-end-computer interface that involves real time simulation and interactions through multiple sensorial channels. The VR system to be used requires subjects to negotiate virtual obstacles while walking on a treadmill, in a safe environment. This dual task activity has large cognitive components such as information processing, planning, and attention while allowing for training in a more stimulating and enriching environment that includes both cognitive and motor components."

The participants will walk on the treadmill, their gait speed over-ground will be measured at the beginning of each week of training. Progression will include increasing the duration of each of the walking bouts and increasing walking speed.
