Physical Therapy: A Foundation for Stroke Recovery
When someone you love has a stroke, it changes everything. Tasks that once seemed simple—walking, standing, or getting out of bed—can become major challenges. But there’s hope. At Florida Movement Therapy Centers in Boca Raton and Boynton Beach, our physical therapy team specializes in helping stroke survivors rebuild strength, improve balance, and regain mobility—safely and at their own pace.
How We Help Stroke Patients Move Again
Our licensed physical therapists understand the unique journey of neurological recovery. Therapy may include:
- Gait retraining to walk safely again
- Strength exercises for weakened muscles
- Balance training to prevent falls
- Functional mobility work to regain independence in everyday movements
We tailor every plan to meet each patient where they are—and guide them forward.
What the Research Says
Recent studies show that early, high-intensity physical therapy leads to better outcomes for stroke survivors. The brain is most adaptable in the first few weeks after a stroke, making early rehab critical.
Support for Families, Too
We know that caregivers carry a heavy load. Our team offers home safety advice, caregiver training, and emotional support to help families navigate recovery.
Key Takeaways
- Stroke recovery starts with movement.
- Therapy is most effective when started early and tailored to the patient.
- Families benefit from education and involvement in the process.
