NCT04190238

Brief Summary

The aim of the study is to see whether a physical therapy program can relieve pain, decrease spasticity and increase muscle contraction force by using the super inductive system (high frequency electromagnetic field). It is a longitudinal, prospective study, of 60 patients with spasticity after stroke. No new treatment method is tested, as the Super inductive system is approved for physical therapy by the Ministry of Health.
