Summary

This study tested a new type of balance training for people who have had a stroke. Researchers wanted to see if practicing how to recover from pushes and pulls while walking on a treadmill could help prevent real-world falls. They enrolled 86 stroke survivors who had a history of falling or a fear of falling to compare the training's effects.
