New Product Allows Stroke Survivors to Recover Arm Movement - Even Years After a Stroke PDF Print E-mail

Anatomical Concepts are about to launch a new exercise product to assist persons recovering from a stroke to recover arm movement.  In research studies its been shown to help individuals even many years after a stroke. And we know that 44 percent of people who've had a stroke will normally have to tolerate arm weakness. 

Stroke is actually common you know.  It’s like this.  Every five minutes someone in the UK has one.   That’s an estimated 150,000 people per year.  If you’re a male the bad news is that almost one in four men aged 45 can expect to have a stroke if they live to 85.  Women are slightly better off with odds of one in five. Of course, when we really think about it, governments and health services are concerned that in the future they can’t possibly cope with providing quality care for all that might need it.  You may well feel that’s the case right now.  Look around and you see that more and more individuals are searching for practical ways they can get back on track with their lives after stroke.

Cognitive Rehab Gets Support PDF Print E-mail

Cognitive rehabilitation after a serious brain injury or stroke can help the mind in much the same way that physical therapy helps the body, according to a new meta-analysis. Because the data suggest that treatment may work best when tailored to age, injury, symptoms, and time since injury, the findings may help establish evidence-based treatment guidelines.
