Join Stroke Exercise study
Dalhousie University invites stroke survivors to a rehabilitation study for 12 weeks.
Participants attend three sessions per week and complete walking, stepping, and balance activities that are adapted to their needs.
This study has two groups: VR (Virtual Reality) and 360-degree treadmill training or traditional exercise. Both groups receive a structured rehabilitation program, just with different training methods.
Payment for contributing to the research will be awarded to all participants who complete the assessments
