Stroke is the leading cause of disability among adults and frequently results in impaired mobility. Neurological deficits that lead to loss of leg strength and impaired balance are two factors that correlate to walking ability.In hemiparetic patients, owing to the characteristics of ankle joints, they are known to be more likely to have increased spasticity and shortened fascia of the gastrocnemius on the affected side, producing a reduced range of ankle dorsiflexion. Therefore the purpose of this study was to find the effectiveness of static stretching of ankle plantar flexors in closed kinetic chain and in supine position on ankle range of motion in hemiparetic patients.
