Stroke Rehabilitation in Colchester, Essex
Are you in need of stroke rehabilitation in Colchester, Essex? Bodyworks Physiotherapy is here to help! A stroke is caused when a blood clot or haemorrhage in the brain causes the blood supply to a part of the brain to cut off. This is a very serious medical condition and it needs to be treated immediately.
If you have recently had a stroke, you will have a better chance of a good recovery if you commence physiotherapy rehabilitation as soon as possible after returning home from the hospital. You will find that your movement will be affected and you may experience numbness or weakness in your arm and/or leg or face. The affected side may feel very different, with the limbs feeling heavy and possibly painful and you may also have issues with your posture and balance.
Physiotherapy is an important part of your recovery and it will help you learn how to use both sides of your body again and gain back as much muscle strength and range of movement as possible. At Bodyworks, we can help you regain your mobility and independence.
A stroke can have a huge impact on someone's life and it can affect them in many different ways. We are very aware that rehabilitation for stroke survivors is very personal to each individual and so we aim for the assessments and treatments to reflect this. We can also advise your family or your carer on how to help you with mobility on a daily basis. Get in touch for more information on our stroke rehabilitation in Colchester, Essex.
