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 a new approach to help stroke survivors recover better ankle and foot function using a specialized robot and virtual reality technology. The robot guides your ankle through structured exercises while a computer screen shows interactive tasks to help retrain sensation and movement. Researchers want to see if this high-tech training works better than traditional hands-on therapy from a physiotherapist.
Many stroke survivors struggle with walking and balance because of lasting weakness and loss of feeling in their ankle and foot, even after regular rehabilitation. This new treatment aims to fill that gap by providing structured, precise practice that targets both sensation and movement control in ways that standard therapy may not.

You will visit the clinic three times per week for 6 weeks (18 sessions total), with each session lasting 50-60 minutes. You'll be randomly assigned to either the robot-assisted training group or the traditional manual training group — both groups receive the same ankle and foot exercises, but one uses a robot with virtual reality games while the other works with a physiotherapist. Throughout the study, researchers will measure how your walking speed, balance, ankle movement, and sensation improve.
