About this trial

The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the Usability, adherence, acceptance, and security of an augmented reality platform for balance training in patients with balance disorders due to degenerative injuries or cerebrovascular diseases.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

* Is the augmented reality system usable, acceptable, and safe with good adherence? * Does the system improve the balance in our population? * Participants will be asked to assist at Vall d'Hebrón Hospital, where patients will undergo balance training under the supervision of a physiotherapist three days a week for four weeks. * If the patients meet the inclusion criteria, the intervention will be extended for two more weeks at home.
