Summary

This study looks at whether a gentle nerve stimulation (tVNS) combined with hand therapy (mCIMT) can help people who had a stroke more than 6 months ago improve arm movement, thinking, and daily life. 50 adults with chronic stroke will be split into two groups: one gets both treatments plus standard rehab, the other gets only hand therapy plus standard rehab. The goal is to see if adding nerve stimulation leads to better recovery.
