WHAT IS A STROKE?

A stroke occurs when a blood vessel in the brain is either blocked or ruptured. Strokes will cause the parts of the brain that rely on blood from the involved blood vessel to become damaged or die. Strokes can be disabling, and lead to considerable neurological dysfunction.

CONDITION TYPES

Transient Ischemic Attack | Arteriovenous | Aphasia | Hemiparesis | Thalamic Pain Syndrome

OUR TREATMENTS

Strokes result in damage to brain cells and neurological pathways from disruptions in blood flow. Neurons that go without oxygen for too long will unfortunately die off, and nothing can be done to bring those back. Other neurons in the same pathways may become damaged and lose function. These may still be viable, but without proper stimulation will ultimately die off as well. Our therapies are designed to take whatever neurons still work, and make them work better. Precisely targeted stimulation and exercises can often help improve the function and endurance of the damaged neurons. This can lead to improved balance, motor control, vision, and overall function. We utilize state of the art diagnostic technologies to precisely identify the neurons and pathways creating your challenges, then create unique customized rehabilitation plans to help you regain as much function as possible.  Read More

CLINICAL RESEARCH

Stroke research is continually advancing, and great strides have been made in the proper assessment of injured pathways. Cutting edge therapies have been shown in studies to improve quality of life for those that have suffered strokes. We utilize these resources to identify the sources of your dysfunction and design therapy programs for best outcomes. You can find some of these resources here. Learn More
