Thank you guys! With the help of your exercises, my mother start to stand up just one month after a stroke, after three, she starts to walk on her own!! God bless you!!
Thank you so much for sharing the above exercise . In my case my left side is weak. Neither can I flex my limbs. I need the help of someone to help me do the same 😊
Thank you so much for this informative video. My Veteran father’s heart stopped five times and thankfully lived through the strokes. He has currently been released from hospital but is not able to get to a rehabilitation center due to Covid. Praying he is able to gain some mobility and will be watching these videos religiously in hopes to help him best I can in the meantime till he gets the professional help he deserves. He is currently needing oxygen and is showing signs of jaundice-due to him not moving around. Praying for his health and recovery, thanking you for this post!
Thanks for these lessons Dr, my mum had stroke 3months back, half of her entire body couldn't move, but she's moving all parts now but can't walk yet. I so believe these exercises would help her stand and walk.
My mother has stage 4 glioblastoma brain cancer and they took the tumor out of her brain leaving her unable to move her left side. We are doing exercise everyday to hopefully see her walk again and ive used so much of your videos to work with my mom and i want to say thank you for your videos. With continued exercise i hope to see my mom walk again... i wish you all lived in Dallas Texas so we could have you work with my mom and make her dream come true to walk again.
You guys are great! I am physical therapist (with 3 years of work break) and many of those things I actually forgot. While I was watching you, all the pieces (which i already knew and those missing) were starting to come in theirs places. Although it is much more easier when you now basics, including PNF, functional, bobath... Thank you! Would be nice to see also other neurological diagnosis' treatments!
physicaltherapyvideo hahah,i am not progressing,i am regressing 😂 But thanks anyway! And yes,my bad- after i wrote the comment, i saw videos :) Keep going!
Thanks for this video I suffered a Stroke 2 weeks ago which has affected. My balance & coordination. I took my first steps today but watching these videos will help me with my future journey.
Hi, I just found your videos, they are so helpful. I have a few video recommendations... Could you do one on practical keys for bed mobility- especially scooting up and down in bed, particularly for more complex patients who cannot bridge well or are very de-conditioned, or in cases when they are unable to follow commands well? A video on technique and tips for stand pivot/ sit pivot transfers for more complex/ dependent patients would be very very helpful as well!! If anyone has any additional resources on these topics I'd love to hear them.
My mom had stroke 11days ago and now shes in the rehab center. Looks like she had bad stroke. Im gonna try this excercise to my mom thank you very much for you video!!
Friends..Dont loose Hope..my dad had stroke 2 months back was in Coma for a month and after talkng now and with support trying to stand and slowly taking steps..slight movement in hand and leg....just keep ur loved ones muscle moving..follow physio exercises taught by your Doctor and Hospital and remind ur loved one all memories and good movements..
One of my members from the United Kingdom! Rona Morris I'm relearning stairs have a reebok step and have affected foot on floor non affected on step on lowest and initially just sit to stands putting weight through affected side to retrain brain and rebuild gluteus area it is working as I now can do steps with no stick going down 2 or 3, I'm 3 years out and still getting progress on a steady scale.physiotherapist sees a difference every 2 weeks
As a SPTA some helpful topics in this vain (stroke patients with impairments) would be working with LE extensor tone in functional activites like pregait training/sit to stands, getting a person with weakness or slight synergies in and out of quadruped, and working with a patient with unilateral weakness in tall kneeling (stability, controlled mobility, and begining skill)
thank you I work in HH as a OT assistant and this is very helpful. If only you had some tips on another activity of daily living that is very difficult for most people, wiping their bottom on a bedside commode
that is so enlightening! Really Great!! Functional training!!! That's what F.M. Alexander pioneered do recover from his stroke. To all physiotherapists: Please do not advertise yourselves as teachers of Alexander Technique unless you have graduated from a 3 year training course.
Actually, am now able to sit from the bed.i learned without the help of others. I can also grasp a bamboo pole mounted on the wall which my step father made which eneble me to stand. Can you show me the correct video on how to stand?
Hello Drs just found your videos on utube thanks i have had 4 strokes an am trying to get my stamina back I aslso had a heart attack at the same time as my first stroke any suggestions?Thanks
Hi I am looking for exercises to send a friend in a care facility after breaking his leg. We was in a power wheel chair before this injury. Patient does not have help to do exercises and I can not enter the facility
My uncle just had a stroke almost a week ago. What can I do to assist him with sitting up? He has right side is limp ams and leg. He has good strength and can push back against me when asked. Just having a hard time sitting up
my grandpa had 4 strokes and now he can only look around him with his eyes and barely tilt his head he can only move his right arm every once in a while but he can cry and laugh when he hears a joke or misses someone he can swallow but when he breathes he breaks the inhilation like he inhales 3 times and than outhales whats the best exercize for him pls say my name in the vid so i can know its for him
What if my client weighs 100 lbs more than and sleeps on a water bed. There's not much stability there to get her up out of bed. It's been hurting my back to have to move her.
Hi. This is a great video. But what is the stroke patient is experiencing a lot of sensitivity in the affected arm; such as, soreness, spasm...? What's the work around other than muscle relaxer?
This is a (very good) demonstration for a patient, who has hypotonia in the affected side. If the patient has hypertonia, you will/ might not be to do it like that, or you risk activating the hypertonia. So how would you go about it, if the patient has hypertonia in the affected side? One the best way to rehabilitate the body after a stroke, is also in the small variations of the training, so it is ( in my view) just as important to be able to get from lying to sitting position over the non affected side the body, and how would you go about that if the patient has respectively hypertonia or hypotonia in the affected side? And how would you rehabilitate the hypertonia in the affected side? Kind regards
Hello sir i wanted know that the movement of arm in diagnol pattern wont it affect shoulder ??coz the hemiplegic shoulder is more prone to shoulder dislocation so shud we consider it or if otherwise den how to deal with the shoulder dislocation during arm exercises to prevent this complication
great stuff lads, how much resistance weight can i use on my legs without risk of bursting a weak blood vessel in my head..does sneezing hard risk another stroke
My wife has a stroke. She had craniotomy. Her left side is affected. However her left side is painful whenever she does weightbearing pn her left side! Please help
My mom has a stroke. She usually has pains when she tries to move her right part of her body ( the affected part). What do I do? The pain is unbearable for her
If I had a tumour in my fourth ventricle removed and now I'm left with balance issues and such would you're stoke rehabilitation playlist be good for me ?
can u suggest me better exercise for weak hip abduction end range knee extension n fr over supination and there is flexion posture of upper body. while walking n standing in stroke case. these are problems i am getting to make the patient walk.
Brenda Forehand keep posting u are great the hand is what i have a problem with im doing the straightening exercises on the curled fingers that wont straighten should i be strengthening them also
You mention that this is research based. I cannot find any peer reviewed evidence to corroborate "overflow" or "crossover" effects. Where can one find some articles to read through for themselves?
My affected arm and hand still don't work and my arm is extremely painful I am 48 and an 4 months into recovery I have regained the use of my affected leg Sara Ruthxx
Guys I'm finding out a lot of my members do not have a Google Account and can't post comments under your awesome video! So as I get their posts on Facebook I'll post them for them!
Hi Bob and Brad, does it matter which side of the bed would be better to get out of? In the video Brad is trying to get out of bed from the weak side but would it be easier or harder to try from the stronger side?
Hi guys I’ve had an autoimmune issue that left me with a brain injury from swelling. I’ve also had memory loss. I’m now in recovery but I’ve spent the best part of 6 months in bed. Could you help me with advice on exercise to help with mucle waistdage I can stand and walk to the tolit about 10 foot with a Walker frame with wheels. That’s so much. Tom
Mommy has to watch this video because Daddy had a stroke 5 years ago. She has to work for hours to take care of him. Her life is very hard because she was born in a poor country called Laos, had to go to refugee camp when she was only 8 years old after her youngest brother was born, she moved to America after refugee camp, she spoke English at 8 years old, she got married to Daddy at age 19 years old, she was pregnant with her first baby, me, when she was 23 years old, she gave birth to my little brother Joseph at 26 years old, she gave birth to my little brother Seth at 28 years old, she gave birth to my little brother Zach when she was 29 years old, she gave birth to my little brother Jed when she was 32 years old, she gave birth to my little brother Isaiah when she was 33 years old, and she gave birth to my youngest brother Jeremiah when she was 36 years old, she had to take all us kids to the doctors and the hospital, she cooks and cleans, and now she has to take care of Daddy. She says that Daddy is like her last child. Changing his diaper and feeding him and helping him walk and getting him dressed and taking him to the doctors and cutting his hair and cooking for him and feeding him and showering him down and hauling him up and down the stairs. Daddy can talk, but not in complete sentences. His two favorite words are change and when. He can ask questions, too, like which one is it and what time is it and where is it and which one. Daddy has two crazy siblings. He has a crazy little sister who hates Mommy. He has a crazy little brother who hates Mommy. Those two stupid people kicked her out of church. But they don't know that Mommy is always tired. There are 7 kids running around the house and she has a sick husband that she has to take care of.
Lesley Gilbert I brewed to correct my dropped foot because wearing the brace is cutting off my circulation. As I have diabetes this could lead to amputation. The health professionals ate very negative on this subject. I am constantly being told that I have probably for my stored for for life. I am not a negative person but its hard to rise above that kind of comment. I doubt care if I have a dropped foot for life I do need to try put excuses that could possibly work Weymouth the brains for plasticity (to create new neural pathways). I also need to increase movement in my right leg because. My hamstring has been affected. Which means I can't bend my leg to touch my behind si can with my best side. These two things are the main reason I cannot walk without sticks also need to work in balance. I have now decides to sou my foot brace when indoors to try to get some movement in my foot. Despite having no excuses for a stored foot I can now move my foot toward s my head when lying down on my back on my bed. I will not give up.
+Second Chance Stroke Survivors Aaron Avila Unfortunately, conventional medical doctors can be very negative. Keep it up...it takes a lot of work to get well. Your body is truly amazing at healing itself!
Just want to say that despite some comments here, the method of getting someone out of bed by leading with their stroke affected side is a terrible idea. Until any shoulder separation at the joint has retracted and shoulder blade sitting flat with some recovery, having them lead and roll onto the affected arm is potentially dangerous, and extremely difficult for the patient. By leading off the side of the bed with their good leg and arm, they have firm plantation of their foot and can push themselves up with their strong arm without risk of potentially falling on the affected side and tearing a muscle or dislocating a joint. Until the patient regained some strength and muscle tone, that is a terrible method. 12 years later it is still infinitely safer and easier for me to leave my bed to the right (my left side the affected side) and is exactly what my team of PT’s and OT’s encouraged to avoid injury.
Thank you guys! With the help of your exercises, my mother start to stand up just one month after a stroke, after three, she starts to walk on her own!! God bless you!!
Thank you so much for sharing the above exercise . In my case my left side is weak. Neither can I flex my limbs. I need the help of someone to help me do the same 😊

How long per day should one be doing this each day after a stroke whether it be one month or 6 months?
3 or 6 times a day to help get the motion back
Just want to say that despite some comments here, the method of getting someone out of bed by leading with their stroke affected side is a terrible idea. Until any shoulder separation at the joint has retracted and shoulder blade sitting flat with some recovery, having them lead and roll onto the affected arm is potentially dangerous, and extremely difficult for the patient.
