What is a Stroke?
Stroke is a leading cause of disability in adults. Dr. Physio Therapy & Wellness in Fort Lauderdale and Delray Beach, FL 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:
- Partial body weight support
- Motor image
- Constraint-induced movement therapy
- Functional electrical stimulation
- Neurotherapy techniques (Biofeedback)
Biofeedback is a form of neurological therapy that assists in improving understanding of muscle function and how it can be enhanced.
This is done by applying electrodes to the skin and viewing muscle activity on the device.
After a stroke, our physical therapists at Dr. Physio Therapy & Wellness in Fort Lauderdale and Delray Beach, FL will help you regain your functional skills so you can get back to living your life independently.
