Rutgers University in New Jersey will be examining the impact of tele-rehab in patients with cervical dystonia.
For this study, a certified yoga instructor provides one-on-one sessions with patients via video-conference. The protocol for this study is completely through videoconferencing (consent, assessments, and intervention). Therefore, Rutgers University can recruit from anywhere in the world, including Canada.
This study involves:
• 3 1.5-hour videoconferencing sessions to answer questionnaires
• 12 30-minute yoga sessions- at your home with the yoga teacher interacting with you via a live video chat on your computer
• Time commitment= 12 weeks
For patients stuck at home right now, this study provides a solid opportunity to stay active.
There will be $80 USD compensation at the completion of the study.
The Motor Behavior Laboratory of Rutgers University is looking for:
- Adults with cervical dystonia
- Male and Female
- Between 18-80 years old
- Ability to use videoconferencing
You should NOT volunteer if you:
- Have an injury or condition that affects your ability to participate in physical activity
- Have cognitive impairments that could prevent you from communicating or understanding directions
- Are pregnant
- Do not speak English
