Summary

This study tests whether using an intermittent pneumatic compression device on the leg can improve ankle joint awareness (proprioception) and balance in people who have had a stroke. Fifty-six participants aged 50-65 with moderate balance problems will be measured on how accurately they can sense ankle position and control their stability. The goal is to see if this simple, non-invasive treatment can help reduce fall risk and improve movement control.
