Who this trial is looking for
This trial is looking for individuals who have had a stroke and healthy adults to test a new walking training program. Participants will walk on special treadmills while receiving feedback to help improve their walking patterns.

About This Trial
This single-session study aims to evaluate a novel gait training protocol that integrates mechanical constraints and sensory feedback to enhance paretic leg propulsion in individuals post-stroke. The study will include 15 individuals who have experienced a stroke and 15 healthy adults, each aged 20 years or older. Participants will walk on both tied-belt and split-belt treadmills under various tra…
