Stroke treatment FAQs

Can exercise really help with stroke recovery?

Yes, exercise can improve physical function, reduce disability and overall wellbeing after a stroke. Just follow a plan tailored to your needs and work with a professional to ensure safety and effectiveness.

Strength training, aerobic exercise and balance training are generally suitable. Consult an exercise physiologist to create a plan for you.
