Physical Therapy Stroke Rehab
A stroke can affect movement, balance, speech, swallowing, coordination, and overall independence. Physical therapy can help seniors recover important skills, improve strength and mobility, and work toward a safer, more confident return to everyday life.
Stroke rehabilitation may focus on walking, standing, balance, transfers, range of motion, and safe use of assistive devices. Depending on the person’s needs, therapy may also include rehabilitation services for conditions such as aphasia, dysarthria, dysphagia, cognitive impairments, or visual impairments.

Support Before Moving to Independent Living

Therapy can help prepare seniors for that next step and make the move feel less stressful and more empowering.
