This trial is testing a therapy program called Aha BOOST that focuses on helping your arm and hand recover after a stroke. The program includes both group sessions and one-on-one therapy spread over 4 weeks. Researchers want to see if this intensive approach helps people regain more arm and hand function compared to other types of therapy.
After a stroke, many people have difficulty moving their arm and hand, which affects daily activities like eating, dressing, and writing. This trial exists to see if a structured, intensive therapy program can help people recover more arm and hand function than standard rehabilitation approaches.
