Recent years have witnessed significant advances in neuromodulation techniques for stroke rehabilitation, especially in ameliorating motor deficits, positioning them as a key focus in both research and clinical practice. The selection of stimulation targets is crucial, as different sites engage distinct neural mechanisms and yield varied therapeutic outcomes. This review systematically synthesizes evidence from neuromodulation studies that target key regions, including the cerebral hemispheres, sensorimotor cortex, cerebellum, and vagus nerve. By analyzing the stimulation protocols, therapeutic effects, and optimal parameters associated with each target, we aim to provide a theoretical foundation and practical guidance for refining neuromodulation strategies in stroke rehabilitation.
