BACKGROUND: Fatigue and functional limitations considered serious disorders in patients with multiple sclerosis that lead to impairment of the physical activities and disruption of the quality of life (QOL).
HYPOTHESES:
This study hypothesized that:
High Tone Power Therapy will have a significant beneficial effect on fatigue and functional outcomes in in multiple sclerosis
RESEARCH QUESTION:
Is there a beneficial effect of High Tone Power Therapy on fatigue and functional outcomes in multiple sclerosis?
Full description
Double blind randomized study including 40 patients with MS. The patients will be randomly allocated into 2 arms: active arm and placebo arm; in the active arm patients will receive "high tone power therapy" in addition to the physical therapy conventional selected exercise program, and the placebo arm will receive the same physical exercise program with sham "high tone power therapy".
