Neuro Physiotherapy
Paralysis following a stroke can drastically affect an individual’s mobility and independence. At Dr. Dutta Physiotherapy & Rehabilitation Centre, we provide comprehensive stroke rehabilitation programs aimed at restoring function, improving mobility, and enhancing quality of life for patients recovering from stroke-induced paralysis.
Causes of Paralysis after a Stroke:
- A stroke occurs when blood flow to the brain is interrupted, leading to damage in the brain cells. This damage can impair the brain’s ability to send signals to muscles, resulting in paralysis, typically on one side of the body (hemiplegia).
- Other effects may include difficulty in walking, loss of balance, and impaired speech and coordination.
Stroke Rehabilitation:
Early Intervention: Early physiotherapy is critical for recovery. Our team begins rehabilitation as soon as possible to prevent muscle stiffness, reduce swelling, and maintain joint mobility.
Personalized Rehabilitation Plans:
- Range of Motion Exercises: To maintain flexibility in affected limbs and prevent contractures.
- Strengthening Exercises: Targeting muscles weakened or paralyzed by the stroke, helping to restore movement.
- Balance and Coordination Training: Focusing on improving posture and gait to regain stability and mobility.
- Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES): Used to stimulate nerves and muscles, helping to improve muscle strength and coordination.
Gait Training: For patients with difficulty walking, our therapists provide step-by-step training to retrain walking patterns using assistive devices if needed.
Postural Training and Core Stability: Improving sitting and standing balance through specific exercises that strengthen the core and back muscles.
Therapeutic Techniques:
- Manual Therapy: Gentle manipulation to improve circulation, reduce stiffness, and promote healing.
- Neuroplasticity Training: Exercises designed to help the brain rewire and recover its lost abilities.
Patient and Family Education: We teach patients and their caregivers how to perform exercises safely at home, adapt living spaces, and provide support in activities of daily living.
At Dr. Dutta Physiotherapy & Rehabilitation Centre, our goal is to maximize recovery, restore independence, and enhance the overall well-being of stroke survivors. We are committed to providing personalized care and continuous support throughout the rehabilitation journey.
