"Stronger After Stroke" bridges the gap between stroke survivors and what they desperately need: easily understandable and scientifically accurate information on how to achieve optimal rehabilitation.Sections of this title are as follows: Elements Crucial To Recovery From Stroke; Recovery Hints And Tricks; Safeguarding The Recovery Investment; Cool Treatment Options; Elements Of Exercise Essential To Recovery; Recovery Strategies; Spasticity Control And Elimination; Motivation: The Recovery Fuel; and, Recovery Machines.
