Summary

This study tests a new type of physical therapy called NICE rehabilitation for people who have had a stroke and have weakness on one side. The therapy uses a computer to show patients how to activate specific muscles, helping them regain arm movement. Researchers will measure changes in motor function and muscle coordination in 48 adults aged 21 to 80.
