Cycling therapy for stroke recovery
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests a special cycling exercise program designed to help people who have had a stroke regain arm and leg movement. It aims to see if this focused cycling therapy can improve recovery and reduce healthcare costs.
