This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
After a stroke, many people experience weakness or paralysis on one side of their body, making it hard to walk or move their legs. This study is testing whether a device called a Johnston pressure splint—a special support that gently compresses the affected leg—can help improve leg function and walking when used during rehabilitation therapy. You would receive six weeks of standard therapy either with or without the pressure splint to see if adding this device makes a real difference in recovery.
Stroke survivors often struggle to regain leg strength and mobility, and doctors are looking for new ways to improve rehabilitation outcomes. This treatment aims to help people walk better and regain independence faster by combining standard therapy with targeted pressure support.

You will join the study for six weeks of rehabilitation therapy. All participants receive standard physical therapy techniques designed to help stroke recovery. Depending on which group you're randomly assigned to, you will either wear a pressure splint on your affected leg during therapy sessions or complete the same therapy without the splint. Your progress will be measured before, during, and after the six weeks to see how well your leg function improves.
