Clinical Trial Summary

The Life University Center for Chiropractic Research is conducting a research study to better understand how 12-weeks of chiropractic care differentially affects the post-rehabilitation brain electrical patterns and body movement patterns of individuals who have experienced hemorrhagic versus ischemic stroke The study will involve visits to the Life University Center for Chiropractic Research (CCR) in midtown Atlanta. During the 12 weeks of focused care, chiropractic visits could be several times a week depending on the care plan. In addition to the chiropractic care, individuals will receive a physical examination and three follow-up assessments. The assessments in the CCR will include a non-invasive evaluation of the brain wave patterns using electroencephalography (EEG), completion of a few surveys, a balance assessment and a movement assessment. Qualified individuals will receive study treatment and care at no cost.
