STROKE
Unlike many Stroke rehab programmes, we have proven success working with Strokes that occurred ANY length of time ago. Traditional time frames for recovery do not apply with our method.
Our approach has proven benefits across the spectrum of Stroke symptoms:
-
Standing, walking, weight bearing & gait.
-
Drop foot.
-
Loss of muscle activity.
-
Loss of sensation, including heat & pain perception.
-
Facial muscle movement including smiling, forming words, eating & drinking.
-
Voice & speech changes.
-
Under-active muscles, & reduced muscle recruitment.
-
Loss of strength.
-
Breathing changes & diaphragm function.
-
Reduced circulation.
-
Pain and muscle tightness including spasticity.
-
Limited range of motion.
-
Impaired dexterity, fine motor skills & grip.
-
Please note: our services address physical symptoms only - we are not able to support with cognitive symptoms.
BREAKING THE TIMELINE BARRIER IN STROKE RECOVERY
Traditional rehabilitation approaches often operate under the assumption that significant recovery happen within the first 3 months after a stroke. Many of our clients come to us after being told their recovery window has closed or they've plateaued. We do not believe recovery has an 'expiration date', as proven by our results with clients who had Stokes many years ago.
OUR APPROACH
Using cutting-edge rehab technologies, we directly target brain-body communication. Our stroke programme works at multiple levels to strengthen function after stroke, improving motor abilities and voluntary muscle control. We work with most stroke symptoms, including speech and facial muscle function, walking, drop foot and mobility, breathing etc.
We utilise specialised electrical stimulation technologies that mimic brain-body signals, creating change at the nervous system level. This innovative approach helps strengthen communication disrupted by stroke, allowing the potential for regain of function, strength and mobility that traditional approaches are often unable to offer.
Unlike many traditional programmes, our approach targets changes in motor function and neuromuscular communication, aiming to improve muscle control, and rebuilding strength and muscle. Rather than just focusing on 'symptom management', our Stroke rehabilitation programmes are grounded in sports science and performance methodologies to target muscular control, strength and functional improvements.
HOW OUR PROGRAMME WORKS
New clients can schedule an initial phone consultation, free of charge, giving you chance to ask questions and learn about our approach.
Eligible clients will be offered an an in-person assessment to assess responses and fit for programme. Based on what we learn during the assessment, we then tailor the subsequent appointments to you, likely working on an intensive basis.
Intensive programme durations vary from 2 to 10 day intensives (or weekly sessions for local clients). Unlike many programmes, we do not ask clients to be away from home for months at a time, for good reasons:
-
Being away from home for long periods adds significant strain to the individual and family, we want to minimise stress to improve outcomes.
-
Long stays are often costly, or require being hospitalised.
-
We simply do not need the same duration to achieve results.
We offer a Remote Support Programme to bridge the gap between intensives and help clients maintain progress. For more information on this please contact us.
