About two-thirds of stroke survivors will need some form of physical or other therapy. During a stroke, blood flow to a part of the brain is disrupted. Damaged connections between the brain and body can lead to a loss of function. Stroke can impact different parts of the brain and cause problems, including: Paralysis on one or both sides of the body. Loss of feeling in the body parts involved. Muscle weakness. Balance and walking issues. Speech impairment. Difficulty with or inability to do certain movements. Difficulty with thinking, problem-solving, or emotions. https://lnkd.in/dJeYV_Jd #spectrumtherapy #physicaltherapy #physicaltherapyelpaso #elpasotexas #qualitymatters #7locations

Fear Not: A Physical Therapist Can Help You Overcome the Fear of Do you avoid moving (a little or a lot) because you fear it will hurt? Does the fear of reinjury limit your activity? If so, you may be experiencing kinesiophobia. And you're not alone. As many as 50%-70% of adults — not just athletes — experience this feeling after an injury, accident, or illness. Kinesiophobia can result from personal experience. It also can be learned by watching or mimicking the behaviors of others. Fear is a natural response to danger or the potential threat of danger. It causes normal physical changes in the body, such as: Increased heart rate. Rapid breathing. Elevated startle "jump" response. Fear also can cause anxiety — the emotion felt when we think bad things might happen. And anxiety can cause fear, resulting in a continuing feedback loop. Ultimately, when fear and anxiety affect how we move it's known as fear avoidance. https://lnkd.in/gubRzadV #spectrumtherapy #physicaltherapy #physicaltherapyelpaso #elpasotexas #qualitymatters #7locations
