UAMS offers stroke rehabilitation therapies. Rehabilitation helps restore freedom and mobility that may have been affected by a stroke. Every person is affected differently by a stroke, so we offer personalized treatment plans for you. The final outcome will depend on the type of stoke, the degree and duration of the obstruction or hemorrhage, and the extent of damage.
Rehabilitation includes:
- Physical Therapy – Including exercises to help maintain proper movement in your arms and legs
- Speech Therapy – To improve speech patterns affected by a stroke
- Occupational Therapy – Complementing physical therapy, occupational therapy helps you improve skills needed for an independent life, including basics like buttoning a shirt
