How Physiotherapy Helps After Stroke
Physiotherapy is a vital part of stroke recovery. It focuses on:
- Restoring movement and strength in affected limbs
- Improving balance, coordination, and walking
- Reducing stiffness and muscle tightness (spasticity)
- Promoting independence in daily activities
- Supporting long-term health and prevention of future complications
…
Your Assessment
At your first appointment, we’ll take time to understand your unique situation, including:
- A review of your medical history and current challenges
- Assessment of muscle strength, balance, coordination, and mobility
- Identifying your personal goals (e.g. walking independently, returning to hobbies)
- Developing a tailored rehabilitation plan that evolves with your progress
