Stroke Physical Therapy Treatment Johnson City, TN

Stroke

Robert W.

In 1997, I was diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease. The effects of the condition were held in check, largely with medications, until about 2007. It was then that my wife and I noticed serious balance issues. Posture and strength weaknesses were likewise encountered. Sessions at Blue Ridge PT have slowed the ill effects and have kept me physically as well as mentally active.

What is a Stroke?

Stroke is a leading cause of disability in adults. Blue Ridge Physical Therapy can help relieve the effects of a stroke by working to improve balance, walking, and the use of assistive devices. Common therapies for post-stroke rehabilitation include constraint-induced movement therapy, functional electrical stimulation, motor image, partial body weight support, and neuro therapy techniques, such as biofeedback.

Biofeedback is a type of neurological therapy that helps improve awareness of muscle function and how it may need to be changed. This is done by attaching electrodes to the skin in order to measure muscle activity on a screen. After a stroke, our Johnson City, TN physical therapist can help you regain your functional skills so you can get back to living your life independently. Request an appointment today!

What will post-stroke rehabilitation look like?

Physical therapy is a vital part of the recovery for anyone who has suffered from a stroke. A thorough evaluation is done in various stages of the rehabilitation process to determine progression in strength, transfers, walking, balance, range of motion, and safety. Our licensed Johnson City, TN physical therapists approach the care of each individual, adapting the best rehabilitative process to each case.

The long-term goal of any stroke rehabilitation plan is to improve physical function. Sometimes, individuals who sustain strokes will have to relearn basic skills, such as walking, dressing, writing, speaking, or eating. At Blue Ridge Physical Therapy, our advanced methods and modalities are equipped to help you or your loved one relearn, recover, and reclaim life.

How can I get started?

If you or a loved one recently suffered from a stroke, don’t hesitate to seek the proper rehabilitation. Get started on the path by scheduling a consultation with Blue Ridge Physical Therapy today.
