Summary

This study looked at whether adding mental imagery practice to standard movement training can reduce fear of moving (kinesiophobia) in people who had a stroke. 44 stroke patients with high fear of movement took part. One group did mental imagery plus task-oriented training, while the other did task training alone. The goal was to see if the combination improved balance, walking, and reduced fear better than training alone.
