NCT ID NCT07364110
First seen Jan 29, 2026 · Last updated May 22, 2026 · Updated 15 times
Summary
This study tested two non-invasive treatments—high-intensity laser therapy and extracorporeal shock wave therapy—for reducing muscle stiffness in the calf of people who had a stroke. 39 adults who had a stroke at least 3 months earlier received one of the treatments. The goal was to see which therapy better improves spasticity and walking. Both treatments are safe and allow patients to return to daily activities right after a session.
