Summary

This study looked at whether adding Thera-Band resistance bands to treadmill training helps stroke patients with depression, mobility, balance, and walking. Forty stroke survivors took part, with half doing treadmill training plus Thera-Band and the other half doing treadmill training alone. Both groups also received standard therapy. The results showed improvements in movement and mood, suggesting the bands may offer extra benefits.
