Stroke Rehab in Mt. Pleasant, MI

About Stroke Rehab

Stroke can affect movement, balance, walking, coordination, strength, endurance, and confidence with daily activities. Outpatient physical therapy may help after hospital, inpatient rehab, home care, or even later when a person wants to keep improving mobility and safety.

Physical therapy for stroke rehab may include gait training, balance, strengthening, transfer practice, stair training, endurance, coordination, fall-risk reduction, caregiver education, and task-specific practice. Goals might include walking farther, moving around the home more safely, returning to community activity, or reducing fall risk.

Mountain Town Rehab offers one-on-one neurologic rehab in a supportive outpatient environment. Our team also brings orthopedic, vestibular, aquatic, LSVT BIG, and balance experience, which is helpful because stroke recovery often involves several systems at once.

Safety note

New stroke symptoms are an emergency. Sudden face drooping, arm weakness, speech trouble, vision changes, severe headache, dizziness, or balance loss should prompt a 911 call.
