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 trial is testing whether adding rhythmic auditory stimulation—guided music or rhythmic cues—to task-oriented leg exercises helps stroke survivors recover better leg function and balance. You would participate in supervised exercise sessions focused on practical activities like walking, climbing stairs, and balance training. The study compares people who do these exercises with rhythmic music cues to those who do the same exercises without music.
After a stroke, regaining the ability to walk and maintain balance is critical for independence, but many patients struggle with motivation and adherence to rehabilitation. This trial is exploring whether adding rhythmic music to exercise programs can make training more engaging, help patients stick with their therapy, and ultimately improve their recovery.

You would attend supervised exercise sessions five days a week for eight weeks, with each session lasting 30 minutes of specialized leg training plus 30 minutes of standard physical therapy. Depending on which group you're randomly assigned to, your exercises may include rhythmic music or cues timed to your movements—like walking or climbing stairs to a steady beat. Before and after the eight weeks, you'll complete simple tests to measure your leg strength, balance, sense of body position, motivation, and willingness to continue therapy.
