简要总结
The study aims to compare the effectiveness of myofascial release (MFR) and the Rood’s sensory-motor approach in reducing spasticity and improving motor functions in the upper limbs of stroke patients. Myofascial release involves sustained pressure to relieve muscle adhesions and restore tissue flexibility, while the Rood’s approach utilizes sensory stimulation to modulate neuromuscular responses. The hypothesis posits a significant difference (alternative hypothesis) in outcomes between these techniques, though the null hypothesis assumes no such difference. The randomized comparative study will evaluate chronic stroke patients over six weeks, employing measures like the Modified Ashworth Scale and Fugl-Meyer Assessment to assess spasticity and motor function improvements.
