Summary
This study tested two types of walking-balance training for people who had a stroke at least 6 months ago and have a fear of falling or have fallen recently. Participants walked on a treadmill that gave gentle pushes to challenge their balance. The goal was to see if this training could reduce real-life falls and improve walking stability. The study included 86 adults and compared how many falls happened before and after the training.
