Read our Stroke research guide →This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This study is testing whether two different types of exercise training can help people who have had a stroke recover better balance, awareness of body position, and ability to move around safely. One group will do sensorimotor training, which focuses on improving how your body senses where it is in space and controls movement. The other group will do dual-task training, which combines movement exercises with thinking tasks—like walking while counting backward—to improve coordination and balance during everyday activities.
Stroke survivors often struggle with balance problems, fall risk, and difficulty doing two things at once (like walking and talking), which makes them less independent and affects their quality of life. This trial wants to find out which type of exercise program works better to help people regain confidence and safety in their daily movements.

You will be randomly assigned to one of three groups: sensorimotor training, dual-task training, or standard physical therapy exercises. Whichever group you join, you will do 30-minute exercise sessions three times a week for 8 weeks at one of two hospitals in Pakistan. Before you start and after you finish, you will complete several tests to measure your balance, how well you can sense your body's position, how far you can walk, and your confidence about falling.
