At a glance
Constraint-induced movement therapy is a rehabilitation approach that involves restricting use of the less-affected limb to encourage increased use and relearning in the more affected limb, applied in appropriate candidates.

Post-Stroke · How much recovery is possible after a stroke?
The degree of recovery varies widely depending on stroke severity, location, and how quickly rehabilitation begins, with many people making significant functional gains, though some degree of lasting impairment is common, particularly after more severe strokes.
Post-Stroke · What is constraint-induced movement therapy?
Constraint-induced movement therapy is a rehabilitation approach that involves restricting use of the less-affected limb to encourage increased use and relearning in the more affected limb, applied in appropriate candidates.
Post-Stroke · Can stroke affect speech and cognition, not just movement?
Yes — depending on the affected brain area, stroke can impact speech and language (aphasia), swallowing, memory, attention, and other cognitive functions alongside or instead of physical movement changes.
Post-Stroke · The physical effects of a stroke depend heavily on which brain r
The physical effects of a stroke depend heavily on which brain region and blood vessel territory were affected, since different areas of the brain control different combinations of movement, sensation, vision, speech, and cognition.
