Introduction: This research was done to find out how well post-stroke therapy works in reducing side effects and improving patient mobility. Materials and Methods: This study used a randomised control trial design involving 42 post-stroke patients (mean 40 days after onset) with hemiparesis from January to October 2022, who were separated into two groups and randomly allocated to either the experimental group (n=21) or the control group (n=21). The intervention group received 24 times Swiss Ball Exercise (SBE), and the control group received 24 times conventional therapy. Results: We found for the intervention group using SBE on TUG (p<0.001), TIS (P<.001), FTBS (p=0.011), DGI (p=0.005) and RMAB (p<0.001). Conclusion: After a stroke, patients with hemiparesis who exercise on a Swiss ball experience improved body function and movement. © 2023, Malaysian Medical Association. All rights reserved.
