In or out of the hospital, you can choose to receive the specific rehabilitation therapy your physician prescribes to you. All of these major therapies aim at helping you restore your normal functions by introducing ways on how you can cope with your new condition. Here are how you can benefit from these therapies at Advance Home Health Services:
Occupational Therapy
Seniors with physical limitations, individuals who have had a traumatic brain injury, adults with depression, or those who lost their functions due to an injury can greatly benefit from occupational therapy. The goal of this therapy is to help the patients to participate once again at work, school, or activities they are interested in. This is made possible by teaching them another approach for completing their tasks.
Physical Therapy
Physical therapy is commonly used to improve movement, relieve pain, assist in the recuperation of sports-related injuries, provide rehabilitation after an injury, stroke, or surgery, manage chronic diseases like heart illness, arthritis, etc., assist the mothers’ recovery after giving birth, and teach individuals how to use mobility aids. Once your physician recommends that you get physical therapy, you will be taught special stretches and exercises, gadget practice, cardiovascular strengthening, or be given hot or cold therapy, massage, or ultrasound to ease muscle spasms and pains.
Speech Therapy
Speech issues are common after stroke as they will then have difficulties with communicating, drinking, or swallowing. Speech therapy can treat a spectrum of speech and language dysfunctions that involve fluency, communication, voice, language, and swallowing. However, not only do adults who survived a stroke can get to benefit from this therapy. This also includes individuals with learning disorders, neck or head cancer, dementia or Parkinson’s disease, and more.
