Stroke is the leading cause of long-term disability and almost always causes some loss of mobility because they destroy crucial connections between your brain and your muscles. This loss isn’t necessarily irreversible, though. In fact, early recovery, when patients have little to no control over their affected muscles, is when rehabilitation is most important. No matter where you are in the healing process, maintaining a regular physical therapy schedule at IMC Rehab Services is essential for making a long-term recovery.
Stroke victims frequently experience one-sided paralysis, which results in loss of function in one arm and one leg. Even before they regain voluntary mobility, physical therapists work with stroke survivors in the early weeks and months of their rehabilitation to keep these muscles toned and engaged. Physical therapy enables patients to relearn everyday abilities and retrain their healthy brain cells. The outstanding Physical therapy services provided by an IMC team of specialized neuro physical therapist is all you or your affected loved ones needs.
Physical therapy Services delivered at IMC Hospital for strokes often have individualized treatment regimens for each stroke survivor. Your expert neuro-therapist will conduct a complete physical examination, review your medical records, and speak with you or your loved ones about your symptoms and past setbacks at your initial appointment. This will enable them to create a plan specifically tailored to you, focusing on regaining movement and avoiding stroke-related complications.
For instance, your physical therapists at IMC start with the simplest tasks and movements, like safely transferring from a bed to a chair while keeping your injured arms safe. They will eventually progress to exercises and tasks that enhance balance, assist you in relearning important coordination skills, and retrain your brain to carry out actions like walking and gripping objects.
After your discharge from a hospital or inpatient facility, your doctor may recommend acute care at home. IMC physical therapy department also provides an excellent facility of home care services. During acute home-based physical therapy, therapists come directly to your home and work on exercises that are designed to activate and strengthen your muscles while retraining your healthy brain tissue.
You are most welcome at the IMC Physical Therapy department for consultation not only for yourself but also for your loved ones.
