Neuroplasticity is guided by experience. The more you practice something (and gain experience with it) the more your brain will attempt to get better at that skill.
If you need some help then call us on 0203 053 0111 or email support@arni.uk.com to find out if there's an instructor near you who can help you with your recovery.

You are the single most important person in your recovery process. It does not matter if you have a supportive partner, great family members, incredibly supportive friends or the best rehab team in the world. If you are not motivated, then none of it matters.
So never give up. Stroke recovery may last years and every day is a chance to get better. Even if you feel that you have plateaued, most likely are wrong, push through and tell yourself tomorrow is another chance to recover some more

Exercise: Knees-Up. This technique is rather like the seated marching exercise. And we are talking one legged balance here, which also works the hip flexors hard This is also great training for coping with walking up inclines. You should be trying to reach a good height with your knee. Try hard to match the heights on both knees. You may be unable to bring your bad knee even a few inches from the floor, but I promise you that as you work at it, you will get better and better at it.

We know that plasticity can make crucial adjustments to the way information flows round your brain, creating new connections between neurons. Plasticity can be harnessed to work for you, or allowed ultimately to work against you as your brain recovers and adapts to the situation. You have the capability, right here, right now to work with your incredible, constantly changing brain. Understanding that you are directly affecting your own neural rewiring by the things you do will change your perspective on every exercise that you instigate from now on.

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.
If you need help, ARNI SLT Telerehab can now help YOU, right now, wherever you are in the world!
The latest evidence shows clearly that you can conquer aphasia very successfully with the help of speech and language therapy.
And it also shows that SLT Telerehab is just as effective as in-person, face to face treatment.
We have a team of highly experienced low-cost specialist SLTs (all post-grads from Universities such as UCL, the University of Cape Town etc) who are available to help you right now, in your home, via Zoom. You get a one to one hourly service, based around your diary needs, from the comfort of your own home, with a highly experienced specialist speech and language therapist. Please enquire to arni.uk.com/get-remote-speech-language-help-now/ !

Mum had severe aphasia after suffering a dense stroke which has also left her unable to walk, with her right side paralysed. We were terribly disappointed by the lack of therapy she received to date...
Studies have concluded that arm cycling is a useful tool for rehabilitation. They found that muscle force and the range of active movement (shoulder flexion, shoulder abduction, elbow flexion and elbow extension) can be increased significantly.

The rowing stroke, when using an indoor rower, is about 65-75% leg work and 25-35% upper body work. Each rowing stroke involves compression and extension of the legs and is working the muscles of the calves, thighs, hamstrings. buttocks and hips, shoulders, back, arms and hands as well as the 'core' abdominal muscles. And because it engages so many muscle groups simultaneously. rowing gets the heart rate up nicely, pumping oxygen-rich blood around the system in readiness for exertion.
