Promotion of Exercise Through Physical Therapy for Multiple Sclerosis: A Pilot Study
Promotion of Exercise for Multiple Sclerosis Through Physical Therapy (PromPT)
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 6 Jul 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
Physical activity and exercise help manage symptoms like fatigue in people living with multiple sclerosis (MS). Despite research supporting physical activity participation, people with MS are often insufficiently active to reach health benefits. Promotional efforts that are sustainable within the United States healthcare system are needed. This project is a pilot randomized controlled trial examining the feasibility of a consultative physical therapy intervention for increasing physical activity engagement.
