is our latest member at ARNI in May, and in her first two sessions she learned how to get up from the ground (in three different ways!) She is a big star, and she is going to show what can be done when a seriously motivated person comes to train with the full intention of recovering her former movement. You will succeed.
Do you know the best way to regain movement after a stroke?
The answer is by practicing movement.
But not just any movement – it must be specific, therapeutic, and highly repetitive. This helps stimulate neuroplasticity in the brain and improve control over your muscles.

Every time you share, you could directly help someone – as knowledge is power ;)

Shocking million pound settlement for stroke survivor follows avoidable hospital misdiagnosis! A mother from Bishops Stortford received this compensation after Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust admitted a breach of duty regarding her 2016 stroke assessment at Addenbrooke's Hospital.
Despite presenting with left side paralysis, the patient was told her symptoms were likely stress related and was discharged without a specialist referral. This catastrophic error led to a second major stroke just one day later which resulted in permanent physical disabilities and chronic pain. The patient's legal team was able to highlight the basic mistakes and that an inconclusive CT scan caused an utterly preventable situation.
The Trust eventually settled for one million pounds to cover damages after initially changing their position on whether the error caused the second stroke. Such cases illustrate the critical importance of immediate specialist intervention and fast track protocols for all suspected neurological symptoms in UK emergency departments.
For stroke survivors in the UK, this highlights the necessity of robust legal advocacy if required/appropriate and to email Director Dr Tom Balchin if you think you need a steer in terms of the best solicitor & legal company to help you if you feel you have a case. ARNI Stroke Rehab & Recovery says that no amount of financial compensation can truly replace lost independence or the precious months missed with young children - and that we remain dedicated to supporting all survivors who have faced such life changing challenges to regain their functional control. 🏥⚖️🧠📉💪

This happened to my daughter, missed 7 bleeds on her brain, we got a 34 page apologie no cash .

Mines not a stroke but a brain injury (car accident 2020 before first round of covid) told its in my head for nearly 2 years - An im imaging it! diagnosed at 2 yrs with post concussion mild traumatic brain injury i was ignored then buried but i took it apart piece by piece an worked out who I needed to see an asked for referrals global left side weakness, migraines daily, double vision, sound sensitivity, noise sensitivity, balance issues- took till 2024 to get rehabilitation (at this point im told this isn't post concussion syndrome its a brain injury) with a new doctors surgery i paid to see a neuro opthalmologist (2024) to prove i needed a referral to get a referral 2025 after 5 years of blurred double vision everytime i tried to read, im diagnosed with needing prisms as ive convergence on both eyes, (its common in brain injuries) got referred to ENT thru them an actually have an appointnent next week for balance issues 2026! Yep ive always had balance issues since 2020 Never stop trying an pushing forward 👍 medical notes reacted (yes that means deleted!) But my injuries cant be deleted because they need treating an are still recorded because you cant delete MSK, physio, neurologist, neuro opthalmology, rehabilitation, neuro psychology, never stop pushing 😁 eventually the truth will come out they all know! An im tired of being silent 🤫
Innovative magnetic hydrogel injection could soon prevent strokes! So, to do this, researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the University of Geneva have developed a magnetic soft robot that can be steered via a catheter into the left atrial appendage of the heart.
This area is the primary source of blood clots in patients with atrial fibrillation and currently requires complex surgical procedures or metal implants to seal.
The study published in 'Nature' explains how the hydrogel transforms from a liquid into a flexible solid plug that perfectly conforms to the unique shape of a patient's anatomy. This magnetic gel was successfully tested in rats and a pig to demonstrate that it can safely block the appendage to reduce stroke risk without the need for invasive open heart surgery.
While the results are ground-breaking, the tech must now obviously pass rigorous human clinical trials before it can be considered for routine implementation in the UK. Expert consensus suggests that it may take between five and ten years for such bio-inspired materials to reach the NHS for standard patient care. ARNI Stroke Rehab & Recovery says 'hurry up with this non-invasive solution to reducing the incidence of primary and secondary strokes globally!'. 🧠💉🛡️

Wow! Fabulous invention.....hope clinical trials go well ❤️🩹

This is Dr Tom (back when he had some hair on his head!) A three plate pinch hold for time probably around 8 years after stroke with paralysis of the left side of his body. Now, you don't have to re-train to this extent, but just to inspire you!

Stretches are very important for improving your ability to grasp and release items with your hand. You can do them all the time; if possible.
The best results are seen in people who have consistently stretched their wrist, fingers and thumb on their affected side from very early on. You have to manipulate and stretch gently. Stretching however, by itself will not bring recovery. You have to be task focused, So when you have stretched you then ‘do something challenging’ such as trying to pick up a hairbrush and put it into a cupboard or drawer.

Neuroplasticity will work no matter how your arm has been affected. What matters is that you are stimulating the brain by moving your arm. So, if your affected arm has no movement, you can it exercise passively.
Passive exercises are performed independently by using your non-affected arm to move your affected arm. Additionally, having someone move your affected arm for you is another way to incorporate passive exercise into your routine.
If you need some help we have trainers throughout the country. Call us on 0203 053 0111 or email support@arni.uk.co to see if we have one near you.

Yep, we do this. Harry Taylor has his very first Botox injection next Monday (hopefully!) so will book in extra support from Neurowell in Canterbury, at the Parkinson's Centre. We're also going to book a neuro-physio assessment at the Kent Neuro Therapy Centre (previously MS Centre). They have hydrotherapy too.
Even with spasticity?
What about affected leg,I have right sided weakness?
