summary: Balance problems can affect people with MS. In previous studies and in clinical practice it has been shown that the mobility and postural control in people with MS with balance problems could be improved by placing small amounts of weight on the torso. In this study the authors found beneficial effects of the treatment and they suggested that this would be a useful tool to improve balance problems in people with MS.
