BRAIN Corporation Presents Groundbreaking Stroke Rehabilitation Research at WPC2025

BRAIN Corporation Presents Research at WPC2025

In May 2025, BRAIN Corporation, headquartered in Setagaya, Tokyo, took part in the World Physiotherapy Congress 2025 (WPC2025) held in Tokyo. The company's focus was to highlight essential research regarding rehabilitation strategies for severe upper limb impairments in chronic stroke patients.

Insights on Stroke Rehabilitation

BRAIN's presentation, titled "Rehabilitation Strategies for Severe Upper Limb Impairment in Chronic Stroke: A Scoping Review," examined various rehabilitation interventions employed globally for individuals suffering from severe paralysis post-stroke. This scoping review not only summarized existing approaches but also shed light on emerging trends and challenges within the field.

During the presentation, the team had the opportunity to engage with prominent physiotherapists from Canada, who posed insightful questions that sparked further meaningful discussions post-presentation. BRAIN Corporation is currently in the process of publishing their findings to contribute to the ongoing academic discourse surrounding this critical topic.

Exchange of Ideas on Evidence-Based Practice

In addition to the ePoster presentation, BRAIN participated in an open discussion session known as the "IDOBATA Session." This forum brought together physiotherapists from around the world, including Canada, Nigeria, China, and Israel, who exchanged opinions regarding the challenges of spreading Evidence-Based Practice (EBP). One recurring theme was how cultural factors may serve as barriers to the successful implementation of EBP, which led to rich discussions from an international perspective.

Commitment to Clinical Research

Moving forward, BRAIN Corporation remains committed to grounding their research activities in clinical practice. They are dedicated to exploring the question, "What can be done for those with non-functional hands?" This inquiry is at the core of their efforts, as they aim to provide hope and positive outcomes for individuals with severe paralysis through innovative research and practical applications.

As a company that focuses on specialized stroke rehabilitation services, BRAIN also engages in organizing rehabilitation seminars and expanding its operations internationally, including ventures into rehabilitation services in Shanghai, China.
