Vibration plus brain zaps show promise for stroke recovery

NCT ID NCT06893653

First seen May 15, 2026 · Last updated May 15, 2026

Summary

This study looked at whether combining two treatments—focal muscle vibration and a mild brain stimulation called tDCS—can help people who had a stroke move better and have less muscle tightness. The study included 60 adults with chronic stroke and some spasticity. Researchers measured changes in movement, spasticity, and quality of life. The goal was to see if the combination works better than either treatment alone.
