NCT ID NCT07513753

First seen Apr 28, 2026 · Last updated Jun 14, 2026 · Updated 10 times

Summary

This study tests whether a non-invasive treatment called focal vibration therapy can reduce shoulder pain in people who have had a stroke. The therapy delivers gentle, targeted vibrations to muscles and tendons. Researchers will compare real vibration plus standard rehab to a sham (fake) vibration plus rehab in 60 chronic stroke survivors. The goal is to see if this approach safely eases pain and improves shoulder function.
