Abstract
Repetitive facilitative exercise decreases spinal motoneuron excitability and promotes functional recovery. However, there was no correlation between the change in spinal motoneuron excitability and the improvement of upper-limb function. The present results suggest that repetitive facilitative exercise is useful for treating spasticity in the subacute phase of stroke.
