Summary

This study tests a new way to help people who had a stroke and still have balance problems. Researchers will use small, painless vibrations on the skin to give the brain extra information about body position. The goal is to see if this 'sensory augmentation' can make standing steadier and reduce fall risk. The study will involve 36 adults who had a stroke at least 6 months ago.
