Balance and Sensory Training After Stroke
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study compares two types of physical therapy to help stroke patients improve balance, sensation in their legs, and confidence walking. The goal is to see which approach works better for people recovering from stroke.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests whether adding rhythmic music to corrective exercises can improve balance, walking, and quality of life in people who recently had a stroke. It may help you move better and feel more confident.
This trial tests a non-invasive device that stimulates a nerve in your ear to help improve balance and body control after stroke. It may help you regain stability and reduce symptoms like muscle tightness.
This study compares two types of walking and balance exercises for people who had a stroke 6 to 12 months ago. It aims to see which type of practice helps improve balance and walking best.
This early-stage study tests a multisensory therapy to help people with ongoing balance problems stand more safely after a stroke. It may help your balance by giving targeted feedback to the foot and ankle while you practice standing.
This study tests two different ways to help people recover balance and walking ability after stroke. You'll do either sensorimotor training (exercises focused on body awareness and coordination) or dual-task training (exercises that combine physical movements with mental tasks), and researchers will measure which approach works better.
This study tests a balance training program to help people who had a stroke walk safely in their community and reduce falls. It may improve your confidence and safety when walking outside.
