Summary

This study investigates how loss of sensation in the foot and uneven weight distribution between legs affect posture, balance, and walking in people who had a stroke at least six months ago. Researchers will measure foot sensation, joint position sense, and weight-bearing asymmetry, then compare them with balance and mobility tests. The goal is to better understand these connections and potentially improve rehabilitation approaches.
