Our Specialist Approach to Stroke Recovery at Home
Stroke rehabilitation is centred on the principle of neuroplasticity—the brain’s incredible ability to adapt and form new connections. Our specialist neuro physiotherapists use this to help you recover as much function as possible. The process starts with a comprehensive assessment in your home to understand your specific challenges and goals.
We then design a personalised therapy plan based on repetitive, task-specific exercises. This can include gait re-education to improve your walking, exercises to improve arm and hand function, and balance training. As experts in neurological physiotherapy, our team provides the specialist, hands-on treatment needed to drive your recovery.

Frequently Asked Questions about Stroke Rehab
When should rehabilitation start after a stroke?
Rehabilitation should begin as soon as an individual is medically stable. Early and intensive therapy is crucial for maximising recovery potential during the initial months after a stroke.
How long does stroke rehabilitation take?
The recovery journey is unique for every person and depends on the severity of the stroke and individual goals. Rehabilitation is an ongoing process, and our therapists will continually adapt your programme to support you at every stage.
Can physiotherapy help a long time after a stroke?
Yes, absolutely. While the most rapid recovery often happens in the first few months, the brain’s ability to adapt means that improvements can still be made months or even years later with the right therapeutic exercises and support.
