Summary

The purpose of the study is to find out if a nature-based gait training program titled GREEN Walk can help people with chronic stroke improve their physical, mental, and social health, as well as their overall quality of life. The participants in this study are people with chronic stroke who are able to take-part in walking rehabilitation. they will take part in a structured walking program designed to simulate real-life outdoor movement.

Participants will:

1. Join GREEN Walk sessions that last about 60 minutes each.
2. Walk through different natural-like environments with different terrains and simple obstacles.
3. Perform guided walking tasks that challenge balance, strength, and coordination.
4. Complete assessment tests before and after the program to measure changes in movement, mood, social participation, and overall health related quality of life.

The GREEN Walk program uses nature-based and varied walking activities to help participants practice real-world movement in a safe and structured way. Researchers will use the results of this study to understand whether this type of rehabilitation can support recovery and improve daily life after stroke.

GREEN Walk Training Program

The GREEN Walk training program emphasizes a nature-based gait training and environmental adaptability. The participants were exposed to grassy pathways, inclined surfaces, uneven grounds, natural slopes, and obstacle enriched environments that simulated real life community ambulation as the intervention primarily utilized naturally available environments and simple obstacles, making it practical for long term implementation beyond clinic-based care. This form of training more closely resembled daily mobility situations encountered outside the rehabilitation setting, making the intervention more task specific and functionally relevant. Specifically, all participants attended a 1 hr./day x 3 days/week x 6 weeks of progressing Guided Recovery Engaging in ENvironment Walk training (please see attached Study Protocol Appendix for the exercise protocol). No other interventions provided to the participants.
