Sequences of muscle tendon vibrations allow to reproduce the sensory feedback during movement like locomotion and kinaesthesia. It is known that such a treatment promotes motor recovery after stroke assuming that it enhances neuroplasticity. The aim of the research is to study the activity in cerebrospinal circuitry to evaluate the neuroplastic changes during and after instrumented proprioceptive rehabilitation relying on sequences of muscle vibration in subacute stroke stages.
