The stepper is safe (to an extent), but you should think about familiarising yourself with steps again as soon as possible. Real steps are real life, and real risk.
Confidence is everything, and your grip will give you the confidence you need to hold your bodyweight should you not hit a step right, or your foot curl underneath you or to the side as you step up or down. So you need to ensure your good side’s hands and wrists are strong.

This is an ARNI blog that is definitely worth a read. It is looking at therapy post-stroke and what happens you are discharged and the prescribed therapy stops.
Some questions to think about once you have read it...
What do you think? Does community therapy end too quickly? And what can community services do better to support physical rehab? Also, what does usual clinical care tend not to concentrate on enough for individuals before discharge?

Does your therapy end too quickly? | ARNI

Many years of research suggests that the mobility and functional dependence of stroke survivors worsen over time and that accessing later rehabilitation becomes increasingly difficult for stroke…
If you stop exercising, then you risk hitting the stroke recovery plateau, or worse — regressing.
To keep your progress going, you have to keep moving.

Where is the link to buy them? What price are they. Hopefully reasonably priced as most of us do not work so money is tight

How to start retraining your upper limb after stroke? Your starter programme consists both of stretches and tasks. You may or may not have been taught how to safely self-stretch but the idea is that more is better and safety is paramount. You have to stretch your upper limb (gently), knowing at the same time simply stretching won’t bring recovery. You have to be task-focused. So, when you do a stretch, you then do something challenging and specific functionally with the stretch.

Mental practice means you visualise yourself doing something that you want to get better at. It helps your recovery because it activates neuroplasticity.

There is always hope for recovery through neuroplasticity. Although it may not happen overnight, it is possible for the brain to heal itself after a stroke by activating neuroplasticity.
By focusing on highly repetitive exercises and task-specific training during stroke rehabilitation, survivors can activate neuroplasticity and help the brain heal itself after stroke.
We can help you with your recovery. We have trainers throughout the country. Call us on 0203 053 0111 or email support@arni.uk.com to see if there's one near you..
