Improving Gait Adaptability in Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia

A five week personalised rehabilitation program. Participants train gait adaptability via obstacle negotiation, precision stepping and unexpected accelerations and decelerations. The strategies are trained in a safe environment on the C-mill, a treadmill providing augmented reality via visual and acoustic cues. The treatment is implemented in a five week period via 10 biweekly sessions. Each treatment session lasts 60 minutes. In total, participants will receive C-mill training for a total of ten hours. The training will be carried out by a skilled physiotherapist.

Participants in the control group are placed on a waiting list.
