Your brain’s basically begging for movement! 😬
Might have to do a little yoga or Pilates before bed tonight 🙈
It’s especially important when we’re working with neuroplasticity — creating and strengthening new neural connections! (see post on this page a few days ago)

After a stroke, it’s easy to feel like parts of the brain are “lost” — but there is HOPE: your brain can rebuild and rewire. This is thanks to neuroplasticity!🌟
With consistent therapy and lots and lots of repetition - other areas of the brain can learn to take over lost functions — helping people regain speech, movement, and sometimes even independence. 🙌
Recovery takes time and patience, the work is HARD but every small effort counts. Each exercise, thought, or repetition helps your brain grow - for you to get stronger and adapt!❤️

On World Mental Health Day, I'm thinking about the relationship with Physical Health and came to the conclusion that the one struggles without the other😉
The mind and body are deeply connected—when one suffers, the other follows. Stress, pain, or illness can drain energy, mood, and motivation. That’s why caring for both is so needed!
Physiotherapy can bridge that gap. It eases pain, restores movement, and increases confidence—all while lifting mental well-being.
And with physiotherapy at home, recovery becomes even easier: no travel, more comfort, and care in your daily life!
Strong body. Calm mind. Balanced life. 💪🧠✨

Came across this on the wall at my lovely hairdresser’s (at Kokoo Salon in Sudbrooke), yesterday — and it really touched me. 💛
“Take time to care” is a wonderful reminder to us all.

I really do understand how frustrating aphasia can be—not just for those experiencing it, but for everyone around them. However, I believe that with time and patience, we can discover new ways to communicate effectively!

We get it! We lived it! Here are some things we know about aphasia firsthand as ARC's founder is also a stroke survivor:

Aphasia is hard.
It feels lonely a lot.
It can be frustrating.

People with aphasia want YOU to know this:

Aphasia affects how we talk or use language. Language use may be talking, reading, writing, numbers, or understanding. Aphasia from a stroke does NOT affect how smart we are.💡 We still need our friends and connection.

Please:
Be patient
Give extra time
Be respectful
Listen with your heart ❤️

Share this posts on your timeline to help others learn more.
TOGETHER, we can reach and teach!

IN Lincoln, oxygen therapy is available at the Lincolnshire MS Therapy Centre!!

October 2 (O-2) is raising awareness of the importance of oxygen therapy.

Oxygen therapy has many health benefits, such as cell growth and regeneration, detoxification, immune support, new capillary growth and improved neurological function. It reduces inflammation, which is the root cause of pain, discomfort and other symptoms. It also promotes the creation of new blood vessels, which enables continued healing after the treatment has finished, and stimulates the production of stem cells from bone marrow and neurologic tissue.
​
Oxygen therapy can help people living with a range of neurological and other medical conditions. It can also help to speed up recovery from infections, burns, wounds, broken bones and sports injuries.

Most of the centres in our network provide oxygen therapy. Visit our website to find your nearest centre ⬇️

Vestibular problems are a lot more common than people think, and for many, they can completely take over day-to-day life!
Dizziness or vertigo isn’t always “just getting older.” It can come from things like:
❤️ Cardiovascular problems (such as stroke or low blood pressure)
🧠 Neurological conditions like MS
👀 Eye disorders
😟 Anxiety or stress
💥 Neck pain, whiplash, or concussion
⏳ And even the natural process of ageing

I’m not a specialist in vestibular rehab, but I do understand the basics of rehab and neuroplasticity. It can take time, but with the right support, your brain can adapt — and life can feel so much better.

💬 I have to share this truly inspiring update from one of my clients!

I recently checked in on her after a physio friend told me about someone with similar symptoms.
Below is part of what she wrote back...(shared with permission😝)

Now, keep in mind—this amazing lady is 98 years old, and I first saw her after a big fall!
She’s incredible! I love working with such determined, hardworking people☺️
Her determination shows that with the right support and mindset, amazing things are possible at any age. 💪✨
