As we come to a close for World PT 2025: The Palms Rehab Department hosted a forum on the theme this year!

Thank you so much to the sponsors who made the Palms rehab Dept’s World PT day event a success.
Without your contribution none of this would have been possible.

We hope that through our posts, you guys are learning and spreading the word: education is key!

And again, if you know a Physiotherapist, let them know how special they are ✨✨✨✨

Fear of Falling (FOF) can become a cycle: stroke survivors who have fallen once may limit activity, leading to reduced balance and increased risk.

Addressing this fear—through gentle movement, mindset shifts, and graded exposure—can break that cycle and restore confidence.

If you are new to balancing exercise, PLEASE hold onto something sturdy in case you lose your balance! I hold onto a built-in bookcase!

has a great video about this on her YouTube channel: Get Up Safely After A Fall Post Stroke

September is National Falls Prevention Awareness Month—a vital time to focus on preventing falls, especially among stroke survivors.

Having experienced more than a dozen falls in my first 10 years post-stroke, I know how unsettling they can be—physically and emotionally. This month, we’ll explore why falls happen, how common they are post-stroke, and practical, research-backed strategies to stay safer and stronger. Let’s spread awareness, reduce risk, and reclaim confidence together.

Today’s PT gem: Rehab services was built on the backs of strong women! They started very small and saw the need for more to be done!

We thank them for their service and their vision!
