STROKE-MOBILITY INTERVENTIONS, BIOFEEDBACK
From NeuroRehab.wiki
SUMMARY
1. Gait training with movement or postural visual feedback is not beneficial for lower limb rehab post stroke.
2. EMG biofeedback may produce improvements in motor function, muscle strength and functional ambulation, but not ADLs, ROM or functional mobility. The evidence is mixed regarding gait.
3. Rhythmic auditory stimulation training may improve gait, functional ambulation and balance post stroke.
