Get upper limb training on The Successful Stroke Survivor Volume 5 Video Series
On this DVD. Dr Tom starts to take you into the realms of upper limb training particularly for reach, grasp and release. This is very different to lower limb work in that no management strategies are taught – rather, you will learn how to tackle spasticity and flaccidity head-on so that you can recover function again. Essential stretches are shown here: these will help you to ‘get the gap’ between your thumb and fingers in order to grip. Without this, you can’t do anything with that hand. Stretches PLUS task-specific work have the potential to improve your function dramatically. This DVD shows you the vital first part.

Doing standing push-ups against a wall is a reasonable way for a stroke survivor to start doing upper body strength training. If you need to, use the more-affected hand to hold the less-affected hand in place or get someone to support your paretic upper limb while you do it.

So,So,What do you think links the 3 leaders: From February 4 to 11, 1945, President Franklin D. Roosevelt of the United States, Soviet Union Premier Joseph Stalin, and British Prime Minister Winston Churchill met near Yalta in Crimea to discuss how post-World War II (WWII) Europe should be organized. Within 2 decades of this conference, all 3 men had died.
President Roosevelt died 2 months after the Yalta Conference due to a hemorrhagic stroke.
Premier Stalin died 8 years later, also due to a hemorrhagic stroke.
Finally, Prime Minister Churchill died 20 years after the conference because of complications due to stroke.
At the time of Yalta, these 3 men were the leaders of the most powerful countries in the world. The subsequent deterioration of their health and eventual death had varying degrees of historical significance.
Churchill's illness forced him to resign as British prime minister, and the events that unfolded immediately after his resignation included Britain's mismanagement of the Egyptian Suez Crisis and also a period of mistrust with the United States.
Furthermore, Roosevelt was still president and Stalin was still premier at their times of passing, so their deaths carried huge political ramifications not only for their respective countries but also for international relations. The early death of Roosevelt, in particular, may have exacerbated post-WWII miscommunication between America and the Soviet Union-miscommunication that may have helped precipitate the Cold War.

Have YOU got aphasia?
Approximately 40% of stroke survivors experience this difficulty: to comprehend or produce spoken or written language caused by a cerebrovascular accident. In half of these cases the language impairment still persists one year post-stroke. Aphasia has wide-ranging effects on the ability to function and quality of life of stroke survivors and easily leads to social isolation.

Here's a great message from a happy client of Senior ARNI Instructor Gabriella Pásztor
It was my daughter who found ARNI through the strokes association group chat after the ugly head of COVid caused my NHS physiotherapy to be reduced to 2 sessions a week instead With no word of a lie .I was a little apprehensive in meeting gabby as I did not know what to expect. I gave her a chance after conversing with her she filled me with hope and encouragement. Her whole caring persona just flowed out professionalism and unselfish confidence. Which is why we booked further continuous sessions with her after this initial assessment After each session my confidence keeps growing. Her game plans are practically open to interpretation as the session went on., which was great. No session was the same though as all the elements Gaby is teaching me are all coming together in aiding my development/journey. Gabby has drawn my attention to the mechanics of movement body that we take for granted. As the months have gone on I have grown to admire her so highly, due to that my friends, family and the NHS physiotherapists can see a difference. Also my confidence has been lifted immensely. Gabby has given me back my life and light at the end of the tunnel ,to which is what I thought had lost Gabby adores and grins when I call her by her moniker (nickname)inspector gadget because she has this magical backpack(oils, repair tapes nerve repair tools and bandages) brings on hand for any discomfort, she just dips into her bag and soothes my pain away. After every meeting she gives me homework which is fundamental in my reprogramming.

APPROPRIATE compensations are those that are necessary for the performance of a specific task in a given environment at a certain time but that do not persist once the task has been accomplished. These compensatory strategies should diminish over time.
INAPPROPRIATE compensations are those that persist beyond the completion of a task, limit other functions, or the completion of a task, limit other functions, or mask potential for further recovery.
