Summary

This study compares Swiss ball exercises versus kinesthetic training to see which better improves balance and mobility in people who had a stroke at least six months ago. Thirty-six participants aged 45-65 will do supervised exercises for 8 weeks. Balance and movement will be measured before and after using standard tests.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Swiss ball exercises and kinesthetic training
What this could lead to
If successful, this study could show which exercise method is better for helping chronic stroke patients improve their balance and daily movement.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial with only 36 participants, so results may not apply to all stroke patients. The exercises are supervised and low-risk, but individual results may vary.
