Caring for a stroke patient at home? Worried that you don’t have special rehab equipment?
Good news- Home rehab can still work wonders, even without machines!
💡 Home Rehab is Important After Stroke
Many stroke patients are too weak to travel to a rehab centre or hospital. That’s where home physiotherapy comes in. Stroke recovery can start right in your living room or bedroom- no expensive machines needed.
🧠 The Brain Can Relearn- Let’s Support it!
After a stroke, the brain goes through a process called neuroplasticity. The brain can rewire itself to regain lost skills.
To encourage this healing, we need to give it the right stimulation through guided movements, balance training and daily practice, even with simple tools such as:
✅ Pillow
✅ Chair
✅ Towel
✅ Bodyweight
🚶♂️ How Home Rehab Helps Without Equipment
Here’s what a stroke patient can achieve through stroke rehab at home:
1️⃣Stimulate Arm and Leg movements
Simple hand tapping, towel slides and assisted leg lifts can wake up weak muscles.
2️⃣Reduce stiffness and pain
Gentle stretching and proper positioning helps prevent contractures, no tools needed.
3️⃣Improve Balance and Sitting Control
Seated balance exercises can be done with just a chair and expert guidance.
4️⃣Boost Confidence
Home rehab builds strength and independence gradually, in a safe and familiar environment
