After a stroke, physiotherapy focuses on regaining movement, balance and independence in everyday activities such as walking, transfers and self-care.
Programmes are based on an individual assessment and usually combine task-based practice, strengthening and balance work, along with guidance for family members who support daily care.
Recovery varies from person to person, and progress depends on many factors including the nature of the stroke and overall health.
