Summary

The main aim of the study was to investigate the effects of transcranial laser stimulation together with neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) in post-stroke patients.

Conditions

Interventions

DEVICE

transcranial laser stimulation associated with NMES

The cluster was applied on the skin covering the head. NMES of the paretic limbs was programmed to generate, alternately, ankle dorsiflexion and wrist extension. The NMES was started, after 5 minutes the transcranial laser stimulation (active or placebo-treatment) was started. Then, the therapies were combined. After finishing the transcranial laser stimulation (active or placebo-treatment), the NMES was continued until completing 30 minutes.

OTHER

Placebo

The transcranial laser was applied identically for all groups, but the null dose was used in the placebo group. NMES of the paretic limbs was programmed to generate, alternately, ankle dorsiflexion and wrist extension.
