Understanding Stroke

Before we dive deeper into stroke rehabilitation, it's important to understand what a stroke is and how it can affect the body. A stroke occurs when the blood flow to the brain is disrupted, depriving brain cells of oxygen and nutrients. The effects of a stroke can vary depending on the area of the brain affected and the severity of the stroke.

Types of Stroke

There are two main types of stroke:

  • Ischemic Stroke: This type of stroke occurs when a blood clot blocks an artery supplying blood to the brain. It is the most common type, accounting for approximately 85% of all strokes.
  • Hemorrhagic Stroke: Unlike an ischemic stroke, a hemorrhagic stroke happens when a blood vessel in the brain ruptures, causing bleeding. It accounts for the remaining 15% of strokes.

Stroke Rehabilitation

Recovering from a stroke can be a challenging and complex process, requiring a multidisciplinary approach. Our podcast aims to provide you with the information, tools, and support you need to navigate the rehabilitation journey successfully. From physical therapy exercises to speech and occupational therapy techniques, we cover a wide range of topics to aid your recovery.
