A preliminary study suggests that a higher-intensity walking exercise regimen, coupled with standard physical therapy, can significantly enhance the quality of life and mobility in stroke survivors. The study, set to be presented at the International Stroke Conference 2025, involved 306 participants who began rehabilitation roughly one month after their strokes. Researchers emphasize the importance of structured, intense exercise, particularly in the early stages post-stroke, to leverage the brain's neuroplasticity and promote recovery successfully.
The quality of life and mobility in stroke survivors improved significantly with a blend of higher-intensity walking exercises and standard physical therapy.
Structuring exercise with sufficient intensity is essential for effective rehabilitation, particularly in the initial months after a stroke.
