    Tried it today with my dad and definitely helped with his external rotation! We’ll be doing this and graduating him to the cane and then nothing in no time! I’ll be checking back in to let you know about his progress

    Great advice, I will try all these. I had a stroke the end of this May 2017. Done in my right side. Speech came back fairly soon, 1-2 months. I pray I walk again and soon. I will be 70 this October. I may be an older gal but I am not ready to give up on life...LOLThanks, Darlene

    Thank you for your videos. I suffered a major stroke back in February of 2019 that left me paralyzed on the left side of my body. I was doing PT Twice a week and then my insurance expired and I was left without my therapy. Since then I have been trying to keep my exercises going on my own. It's been difficult for me to get my mobilization back and motivation to do it myself. I walk with a cane and walk slowly but I want to make more progress and get semi normalcy back with my walking. Thank you again for your videos.

      Me too: also left side what’s deceiving about this demo is right side supposedly affected but they use right arm?(at beginning)I can walk with a cane but can’t use a walker one-handed but this might be helpful to those who can manage a walker 🙏for everyone’s successful recovery

    Having suffered a major stroke after a surgery to my carotid artery, I walked slowly on an indoor track for about three years 3 times a week clocking enough mileage to cover italy from north to south. I have recovered enough to walk without a cane. It's still not perfect, but it's getting close. You need millions of steps to make enough changes to your brain. But, it does work eventually, slow maybe, but there's no need to get discouraged. Keep moving safely. No movement is bad. As long as it's safe.

There is a reason why you guys are the most famous because you guys are more than just professionals. You guys set the bar for the rest of the physiotherapists.

My ankle is weak and I find myself rolling my ankle quite frequently. I have a AFO but I dont like wearing it. I do not have health insurance so I am unable to do physical therapy.

    Hey Physical Therapy dudes. I was wondering what can I do to help with my neck pain. It's on the back on neck around the upper part area where the spine and skull meet. It hurts when I protract my scapula. So like when I put my arm in front of me and I protract I get that neck pain like when I do Lat Pulldowns or any chest press movements. I'm not sure if it could be my thoracic nerve but it hurts. Basically if my arms are in front and I shrug my shoulders forward I get that pain. It's been bothering me for awhile.
