Summary

This study looks at how a single session of cardiovascular exercise affects pain sensitivity in people who have had a stroke and in healthy individuals. Researchers will measure pain thresholds before and after exercise in 60 participants. The goal is to understand why exercise can temporarily reduce pain and whether this effect is different after a stroke, which could lead to better pain management strategies.
