New leg therapy aims to get stroke patients back on their feet

NCT ID NCT07525115

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests a type of physical therapy called PNF (proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation) for people who have had a stroke. The therapy uses specific leg exercises to improve balance, walking, and daily function. Sixty adults aged 40-80 who can walk with or without help will be randomly assigned to either PNF therapy or standard physical therapy. The goal is to see if PNF helps them move better and feel more independent.
