Effective Stroke Physiotherapy
Stroke is the leading cause of disability. Stroke Physiotherapy is a program designed to help patients regain the skills lost after a stroke. The sooner the therapy starts after the stroke, the more likely you are to regain lost abilities and skills.
The main goals of stroke rehabilitation include:
Motor relearning and retraining (Neuroplasticity concept).
Improve joint range of motion and strength, preventing joint contracture, which is common in stroke patients.
Improve daily living skills such as bathing, dressing, and eating.
Improve mobility of the patients including walking with an assistive device and progressing returning to function
Carer education and program.
