What is Post-Stroke Recovery?
Stroke recovery (stroke rehab) is an important part of recovery after stroke.
Getting back on your feet is likely one of your top concerns after a stroke, and stroke rehabilitation, also called stoke
rehab, can help. The goal of a stroke rehabilitation program is to help you relearn skills lost when stroke damaged part
of your brain. Participating in stroke rehabilitation helps you regain independence and improve your quality of life.
The severity of stroke complications and each person's ability to recover lost abilities varies widely. However, stroke
rehabilitation can usually help you achieve the best long-term outcomes.
Western Medicine Treatment
Stroke rehabilitation may include some or all of the following therapies:
• Therapy for communication disorders can help you regain lost abilities in speaking, listening, writing and
comprehension.
• Strengthening motor skills involves using exercises to help improve your muscle strength and coordination.
• Mobility training may include learning to use walking aids, such as braces, walkers or canes, to support part of
your body's weight while you relearn how to walk.
• Range of motion therapy uses exercises and other treatments to help lessen muscle tension (spasticity) and
regain range of motion.
• Psychological therapy may involve antidepressant medications, counseling with a mental health professional and
participation in support groups.
• Constraint-induced therapy, also known as "forced-use" therapy, involves restricting use of an unaffected limb
while you practice moving the affected limb. Forcing you to use the affected arm or leg can help improve its
function.
• Electrical stimulation involves using electricity to stimulate weakened muscles, causing them to contract. This
may help with muscle re-education in some individuals.
