Great advice, I will try all these. I had a stroke the end of this May 2017. Done in my right side. Speech came back fairly soon, 1-2 months. I pray I walk again and soon. I will be 70 this October. I may be an older gal but I am not ready to give up on life...LOLThanks, Darlene
Tried it today with my dad and definitely helped with his external rotation! We’ll be doing this and graduating him to the cane and then nothing in no time! I’ll be checking back in to let you know about his progress
Thank You Guysso mucI’ve suffered a massive stroke this past January.My Wife brought me here and it’s been a joy watching your videosGod Bless You Both!!!
Having suffered a major stroke after a surgery to my carotid artery, I walked slowly on an indoor track for about three years 3 times a week clocking enough mileage to cover italy from north to south. I have recovered enough to walk without a cane. It's still not perfect, but it's getting close. You need millions of steps to make enough changes to your brain. But, it does work eventually, slow maybe, but there's no need to get discouraged. Keep moving safely. No movement is bad. As long as it's safe.
Reading your review today, made me enthusiastic again about being able to recover from a stroke, weakness on the left side of my body and I am happy to know the development and progress of your condition.
I had a stroke (it will be 3 years in October 27) I was 27 years old. I am beyond grateful I have almost 100% recovery with my arm but I have drop foot. My ankle is weak and I find myself rolling my ankle quite frequently. I have a AFO but I dont like wearing it. I do not have health insurance so I am unable to do physical therapy. Your videos give me hope that I can make a full recovery. Thank you guys!
You two are great! I’m going to try the bands on my leg. I am mobile, but I need to strengthen my leg and foot. These are great tips and I am very thankful for your videos. 😇
Love the elastic band solution! Ingenious and simple! Kudos to both of you and I will show it to my physiotherapists that your KISS and brilliant solution to a complex problem. Love it! There is a reason why you guys are the most famous because you guys are more than just professionals. You guys set the bar for the rest of the physiotherapists. I chancecupon this video and I'm totally amazed by the solutions that you guys came up with. You guys have my fullest respect. Thank you very much, and as a recent stroke patient. I appreciate the solutions even more as I plan to incorporate it into my routine.
My baby got sores on his foot and he couldn't walk because of his left leg is weak and he couldn't balance himself and stand. He drags his toes and the knee bent backward and it's 6 weeks now so am so thankful for your videos and I'll try your theraphy on him.
Thank you for your videos. I suffered a major stroke back in February of 2019 that left me paralyzed on the left side of my body. I was doing PT Twice a week and then my insurance expired and I was left without my therapy. Since then I have been trying to keep my exercises going on my own. It's been difficult for me to get my mobilization back and motivation to do it myself. I walk with a cane and walk slowly but I want to make more progress and get semi normalcy back with my walking. Thank you again for your videos.
Me too: also left side what’s deceiving about this demo is right side supposedly affected but they use right arm?(at beginning)I can walk with a cane but can’t use a walker one-handed but this might be helpful to those who can manage a walker 🙏for everyone’s successful recovery
My granny had a stroke February 29, 2020 and I found you guys looking for improvement in her recovery..Thanks for the information I love you guys intro song lol. Very catchy!
Yes I'm still going on keeping my hip ankle from going back into the bad position and I'm very happy and grateful for your service! I found myself and I can't believe some therapists don't know anything about this stuff I thought it was a green color not orange,I have not noticed that color!
Hi guys. I just subscribed. I am a PTA in PA. I am presently doing homecare but spent the last decade of my career in SNF's.Your videos gave me some new ideas for stroke rehab. Also, the theraband wrapping is quite similar to using TheraTogs in pediatrics. Thanks for the videos!
MS here and my neighbor is gonna help me tomorrow with my right/leg foot drop issue.. That orange band looks complicated, but I'm hoping it works, at least helps! I haven't been able to explain that knee cap locking to the back thing, but you demonstrated it perfectly! Thank you
Hi there. This will be really helpful for my husband who had cva and suffered a stroke. I would definitley try this contraption and exercises. As he is really dragging his right feet and could not yet walk properly without any assistance. Keep up the good work guys. Thanks much for the vid.🖒

Hi Bob and Brad, would like to ask where do you buy your gait belts? My dad is unable to help himself out of the chair and needs assistance. Kind regards, Jason.
I didn't have a stroke, but due to nerve issues in my legs due to spinal stenosis I was bed bound for seven months. The nerve issues have subsided but I was left with atrophied legs. I can't find any videos for my situation so I'm having to watch any video I can find about strengthening weak legs.
Good Job y’all. I love ur videos. My mom suffered stroke 19years ago and had a relapse 7months ago so she can’t stand to her feet nor walk. Can u recommend any therapy to help her back on her feet??? Will very much appreciate it.
good morning I'm a 41yr old female who just had z strike and lilost left side. nd there waa little woerk on my aem so its basicaly useless unfortunately I'm eager for recovery so thank you for any help.
Great video as always! Thank youguys! I had a severe stroke in November, 2017; my left side is affected, I can walk with an AFO with shoes on, but my ankle hurts if i put weight on it without the AFO and shoes on, will these exercises eventually help to train my leg how to walk without the brace and shoes ?my doctor said my brain has to heal for me to be able to use my left side again.
Thank you for the video, my mom had a stroke (June 2021) it is almost 6 months now she is doing PT 5 days/week, she can move her leg very good while in bed but she cannot walk without my help, can she get better?
What to do if right leg is affected by polio since birth and do not have strength to take body weight and now got paralyzed by left side due to brain stroke?

I had a hemorrhagic stroke on Jun/05/2021. Speech came back in 6 weeks and drooling stopped around the same time. Been trying to walk ever since but left side won’t work.
This only helps when one can already stand and walk. I had a stroke in 2018, been working everyday at home and twice a week with physical therapy, and I still cannot even stand up. My core is strong, my legs are strong, yet when I stand, I have extreme vertigo. I’m getting really frustrated because I can’t even play with my kids

Hi I'm Martin an I had 3 strokes on my left side an my feet is dragging, but I can raise it some when I walk.I also have nerve damage as well. I'm also having very severe nerve pains in the back of my leg. What can I do about that

hello sir good afternoon . I have done my knee manipulation 2 days before now I'm able to bend my leg 90 /92% but its still lots of pain while bending and opening. what exercise I have to do after manipulation If u have any video give me a link plz. can I apply any oil massage on it or no. plz reply
I'm not sure if y'all reply, but it's worth a try! PTA student here, and we're just now starting on strokes. When you're doing the technique around the 5 minute mark where you help the hip move forward, is that basically the same thing NDT or muscular facilitation?
I had a stroke 2 years ago but it just affected my balance there is nothing wrong with legs I can walk but I have to walk slow if I go a certain pace I wobble and fall I went to s physical therapist and they said there is nothing we could help you with your legs and arms are strong but I do need some help. Is there a way to help I have a walker thanks Margaret
Im a young guy, i was diagnosed with GBS, my left leg is doing well, but my right leg is slacking. How do i isolate muscle building in one leg? My glute on that side is noticeably smaller and doesnt flex as well
MY stroke affected my Right Arm and Leg. My right knee hyper-extend. How do I correct the knee from flapping back as you show in time frame 2:44 of this video.When the knee hyper-extend it hurts after a few steps and if I walk for a short distance, at night its swollen. How can I correct this problem?

hello-heads up. it's 7:40 before they get into a "technique", and then not really.
When a person can walk with walker or cane is a stationary bike good to help the leg muscles
This only helps when one can already stand and walk. I had a stroke in 2018, been working everyday at home and twice a week with physical therapy, and I still cannot even stand up. My core is strong, my legs are strong, yet when I stand, I have extreme vertigo. I’m getting really frustrated because I can’t even play with my kids
