Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study is investigates the effect of cervical mobilization on tonus, position sense and balance in patient with multiple sclerosis. Half of participants will received classic rehabilitation program, while the other half will received servical mobilization in addition to classic rehabilitation program.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Cervical region is rich in terms of muscle spindle and reseptors. When this region is touched by physiotherapists, muscle spindles is activited. Thus position sense of joint and balance is developed. Besides, cervical region is parasympathetic area have common relaxed effect. Thus this part can be benefit to regulation of tonus.
