Key words : Brain gym, cognitive function, elderly post ischemic strok Brain gym gives a positive effect on cognitive function in the elderly with post ischemic stroke. There was also significant difference in CERAD-NB score with Mann Whitney test (p<0,05) between the experimental group and the control group. Results: The study showed there was a significant improvement on cognitive function in experimental group and a significant decline of cognitive function in the control group. The difference of CERAD-NB score between pre-test and post-test was analyzed using Mann Whitney U and Wilcoxon Sink Rank Test. Pre-test and post-test using The Consortium to Establish Registry of Alzheimer Diseases вЂ“ Neurophysiological Battery (CERAD- NB) was performed to all subjects before and after twelve weeks intervention. The experimental group exercised twice a week for twelve weeks. Control group did not perform the brain gym movements. The brain gym movements will be performed in the experimental group. Thirty two subjects were divided into experimental and control groups in the same number.

Methods: This study was an experimental test conducted at Makassar, South Sulawesi from June 23rd, 2014 to December 16th, 2014.
