✨ From reduced arm function to ironing again ✨

When this stroke survivor first came to INTENSE Therapies, their arm was affected by a combination of moderate weakness, reduced fine control, shoulder pain, and hand swelling.

Through our intensive programme of repetitive task training, strength work, and selective motor control training, they’ve rebuilt function and achieved their personal goal—ironing independently 🧺💪

At INTENSE, we don’t just train movement—we train for everyday life. By integrating real-world tasks into therapy, our patients return to the activities that matter most.

Boosting Arm Function with Electrical Stimulation ⚡

In this stroke client's upper limb rehab session, we used dual-channel electrical stimulation to target wrist extensors and thumb abduction/extension — a powerful combination to prepare the arm for functional pre-grasp posturing during reach.

By activating these muscle groups together, we help improve first web space aperture — a key factor in shaping the hand for effective reach and grasp in everyday tasks.

This patient was also trained to:
💪 Continue exercises with stimulation for maximum effect
🧠 Use mental practice when the stimulation is off to further enhance neuroplasticity and motor recovery

At INTENSE Therapies, we combine specialist techniques, targeted technology, and patient-led home programmes to give every rehab session purpose, precision, and progress.

Functional Task Training for Upper Limb Rehabilitation

This video demonstrates the progress of a patient with right upper limb weakness following neurological injury. In the initial footage, the patient experiences significant difficulty coordinating the use of a knife and fork due to impaired strength, dexterity, and bilateral arm control — affecting the ability to perform a simple, yet essential, daily living task.

Through a structured programme of task-specific upper limb rehabilitation, incorporating bilateral coordination training, graded strengthening, fine motor control exercises, and functional task practice, the patient developed improved motor control, grip stability, and movement efficiency.

The follow-up footage shows the patient using both knife and fork effectively to cut bread — a meaningful improvement in Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) and independence.

At INTENSE Therapies, our approach focuses on rehabilitation outcomes that directly impact quality of life. By aligning therapy programmes with functional goals identified by the patient, we ensure that rehabilitation is relevant, targeted, and capable of restoring participation in daily activities.

From Impaired Grasp to Functional Independence ☕️

This patient presented with significant hand weakness with swelling, poor wrist stability, and inability to achieve adequate finger flexion to grip a mug handle — making everyday tasks like drinking independently impossible.

Through targeted, intensity-based upper limb neurorehabilitation focused on improving wrist extension, intrinsic strengthening, task specific training and coordinated grasp, the patient can now confidently hold a mug and bring it to the mouth with control and purpose.

This transformation highlights how structured intensive neurorehab leads to real, meaningful functional outcomes
