Galileo Research Facts No. 82: Can Galileo Therapy improve muscle function and cognition in MS patients?

This study shows the positive effects of only 8 weeks (24 session of 5*1 minutes) Galileo Therapy on muscle function, cognition and disability status in MS (Multiple Sclerosis) patients (20Hz, Position 1.5, 20° bent legs, 5 * 1 minutes, 3 session per week over 8 weeks).

The results show significant improvements in hand function (+8%), motor function & cognition (+14%), calculation abilities and short-term memory (+18%) and gait speed (+26%). This relation between cognition and motor function is obvious in many disease conditions: in chronic disease children for example cognitive function improve with effective Galileo Therapy and the resulting improvements in coordination and motor function. This study therefore showed yet another positive effect of Galileo Therapy for MS patients (#GRFS132, #GRFS112, #GRFS94).
