Stroke Rehabilitation

28/2/2023

 
Picture
Stroke rehabilitation works on promoting neuroplasticity, the process required to create changes in the brain that lead to improvements in function post- stroke.

Don’t expect it to happen overnight. It’s a process which requires weeks to months, often years and a lot of hard work from both the therapist and the client.

Its common to get stuck, and feel that progress is too slow or that you have plateaued in our recovery.

Here are some tips to help get un-stuck and to make steps to move forward again in your stroke journey:
  • Focus on what you are doing well and where you have made progress. Engage in positive strategies and keep working with what is working.
  • Engage in task specific exercises that have the right amount of challenge – tasks need to be challenging and intensive but not so complex you are unable to complete them. Think of these as your ‘goldilocks exercises’, too easy or too hard and you wont make progress, you need the just right challenge!
  • Get creative with your exercises – to be consistent you need to have some drive to want to do your exercises – they need to engage you and be enjoyable
  • Keep reassessing your goals, you need to know what you are working towards and be ticking these things off as you achieve them. Keep it simple, focus on one thing at a time so you can give it your all!! Don't make it complicated

My grandma has Parkinson’s disease, she is about 75 years old it was detected 7 years ago. Right now it’s getting more difficult to live for her, because of stiff muscles she can’t even move. L-dopa and carbidopa medicines are given, but won"t give much relief. She can"t eat food and the skin is damaging forming ganglia. I thought this might be the last stage and the medications she was given did not help at all, so I started to do alot of research on natural treatments, I was introduced to Health Natural Centre and their Parkinson’s Herbal Protocol. She started on the Parkinson’s Treatment last year, her symptoms gradually diminished including her Tremors, Body Weakness and Muscle Pains. Reach them at healthnaturalcentre.org , She is getting active again since starting this treatment, she is able to walk again ( down the street and back )she have also resumed exercising to strengthen muscles!! God Bless all PD Caregivers. Stay Strong, take small moments throughout the day to thank yourself, to love your self, and pray to whatever faith, star, spiritual force you believe in and ask for strength. I can personally vouch for these remedy but you would probably need to decide what works best for you.
