  1. PHYSIOTHERAPY FOR STROKE From Multispeciality Hospital

  2. Physiotherapy For Stroke patients Physiotherapists treat patients who have had strokes. They provide rehabilitation therapy to improve movement and function. Physiotherapists also teach patients how to prevent future strokes.

  3. Importance of physiotherapy For Stroke patients Physiotherapy includes exercises designed to strengthen muscles and improve movement. It also involves teaching patients how to do daily activities independently A physiotherapist works closely with a patient's physician to develop a plan for rehabilitating the patient. He or she might teach patients how to walk again, use a wheelchair, or learn to live with a disability. Physiotherapy is often recommended for stroke survivors. It can help prevent further injury to the brain and reduce the risk of future strokes

  4. Purpose of Post-Stroke Physical Therapy Stroke frequently results in paralysis on one side of the body, causing patients to lose function in one arm and one leg. Physical therapists work with stroke survivors in the early weeks and months of recovery to keep these muscles toned and engaged - even before they regain voluntary movement.

  5. What Happens During Post- Stroke Physical Therapy? Physical therapists start with the simplest duties and movements, such as properly transitioning from a bed to a chair while preserving your compromised arms from injury. They will progressively advance to exercises and tasks that will help you regain your balance, recover basic coordination abilities, and retrain your brain to do functional tasks like gripping things and walking. Your physical therapist may also show you how to use stroke recovery devices like the SaeboFlex, a mechanical glove that aids in extension and grasping.
