Study Summary
Physical therapists use dry static cupping for the treatment of many conditions, including spasticity for patients post-stroke. While research better describes the effects of dry static cupping for patients with orthopedic conditions, information is lacking on central conditions, such as stroke and resulting spasticity.
Primary Outcome
The Modified Ashworth Scale measures spasticity on a 0-4 ordinal scale, with higher scores indicating greater spasticity. The grade is determined by passively moving a joint/muscle through a high velocity unidirectional quick stretch. For this study, spasticity will be assessed for the hip adductors and hamstrings of the affected side. Equipment: Mat Table Administration: Patient is positioned in supine on a mat table. For Hip Adduction: Physical therapist passively moves the affected lower
