In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Talocrural Joint Manipulation and Placebo Talocrural Joint Manipulation for Stroke. Completed, enrolled 64 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The primary aim of the study is to investigate the effect of talocrural joint manipulation on the static balance of patients with stroke. The secondary aim of this study is to investigate the effect of talocrural joint manipulation on the dorsiflexion range of motion of patients with stroke.

Timeline
Interventions
This technique, aiming to increase ankle dorsiflexion and mechanoreceptor activation, is based on the application of high velocity low amplitude traction to the joint.
This intervention is a classic method used to evaluate the effect of talocrural joint manipulation.
