Inpatient Care
Enhancing Movement
Mobility loss due to a stroke is improved by modern apparatus designed to make movement easier. This benefits your body by maintaining strength, or flexibility and allows your mind to relearn.
There can be cases where exoskeletons, or assisted movement machines would help, approaches often used after stroke include:
- Anti-gravity, to reduce impact and improve healing.
- Hydrotherapy, using the power of water to assist.
- An electrical current, to stimulate muscle groups.
Our physiotherapists will often work with you directly, to improve range of motion and body strength. Occupational therapists assist with relearning the skills that are important for life.
The same can apply to speech & language therapy. This also helps with cognitive abilities, alongside the latest, stimulating environments

Intelligent Virtual Reality
Video games have been around for decades and are popular. That people who previously suffered a stroke would try them was inevitable and this produced a remarkable result.
Beyond enjoying the game, some found lost skills starting to return. The improvement in concentration, spatial awareness and problem solving was there to be measured.
Neuroscientists who saw the data realised how much more could be achieved by purpose designed alternatives, which we now have.
Mind Motion GO leads the field and is of value to our stroke patients. An interactive, game based digital therapy with a variety of options, created to help re-educate on movement and more.
Other installations such as Tyrosolution Pable, or Tymo, let you see your movement patterns and improve them. Assisting with balance, posture and core strength, to support the use of your arms, or hands.
