About this study
The study aims to study the effects of a novel treatment for vestibular symptoms in people with multiple sclerosis. The main objective is to determine whether daily personalized gaze stabilization training is more beneficial than intermittent gaze stability training in people with multiple sclerosis.
Compensation is read from the study's own description and may be missing — always confirm with the study team.
