Read our Multiple Sclerosis research guide โThis study doesn't follow the usual testing phases โ it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This study is testing a new way to help people with multiple sclerosis get more physical activity through guided exercise and physical therapy support. Researchers want to see if working with a physical therapist to build an exercise routine โ focused on aerobic activity and strength training โ can help people with MS stay active and feel better. The study will track whether this approach is practical, helpful, and something people can stick with long-term.
Even though exercise is known to be very helpful for managing multiple sclerosis, many people with MS don't do enough physical activity. Physical therapists have the training to help, but this type of guided exercise support isn't widely offered โ especially to people with mild symptoms who might benefit the most. This study aims to test whether a structured physical therapy program can help people with MS increase and maintain their activity levels.
If you join this study, you'll be randomly assigned to either start the exercise program right away or join a waitlist group that waits 6 months to start. The exercise program lasts 24 weeks and includes six one-on-one physical therapy visits where a therapist will help you design a personalized exercise routine โ typically 2โ3 sessions per week of moderate aerobic activity plus strength training. You'll also wear a small activity tracker and complete assessments at the beginning, 6 months in, and 10 months in to measure your progress and how you feel about the program.
