This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing whether combining two types of physical therapy — functional muscle training plus specialized turning exercises — helps people who have had a stroke recover better balance and mobility. Researchers want to see if this combined approach works better than turning exercises alone, and whether it improves quality of life.
Many people struggle with balance and difficulty turning after a stroke, which makes daily activities challenging. This study aims to find out if adding muscle-strengthening work to turning-focused therapy gives patients better results than one approach alone.

You will be randomly assigned to one of two groups for 6 weeks. One group will receive specialized turning exercises plus muscle-strengthening training, while the other group will do turning exercises only. Your balance, ability to turn safely, and walking will be tested at the start and end of the study using simple, standard tests like walking a figure-eight pattern and standing on one leg.
