Kitchens are a great place for rehab. Pans are particularly good for rehab exercises as they come in different sizes (and weights), can be lifted, shifted and poured from. But perhaps best of all THEY DON'T BREAK when dropped!

A one-stop ‘go-to’ book to give to a family going through the painful process of having a loved one suffer stroke – or for the stroke survivor to get for themselves to add to their ‘ammo’.
In it you will find out how to cope with stroke, and recover from it optimally. It takes you through the full process; from arriving at hospital onward. Suitable therefore also for someone many years after stroke, this book reveals many hundreds of clever tips concerning how to rehabilitate effectively and self-manage at home over the long term in a relatively cost-free way.

This is from a memory back in 2014. Just had to share again!!
Comment from Rona Morris to Tom via facebook. To me, this encapsulates the whole point of what we do and have done since 2000 for stroke survivors - and where it's all going ..
If you read this, would you comment quickly with your view? Very valued - many thanks, Tom ;)

The Successful Stroke Survivor book by Tom Balchin
Reviewed by Joe
5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful book!

I've had the pleasure of learning from Tom Balchin, founder of the ARNI Institute and author of this book.
This is a concise guide to stroke survivors (Tom Balchin himself is one!) on not only how to self rehabilitate with assistance but also independently, with evidence based studies to further reinforce how important it is to perform the rehabilitation exercises regularly.
As well as this, all technical jargon has been simplified, and Tom makes a personal connection with the reader through his own experiences, showing that he is a true master of his craft.
I couldn't recommend this book enough to stroke survivors, their relatives, carers and specialists!

First book I bought following my strokes
hello po ano ba ang gamot kung na hihilo?
GREAT IDEA!! The app that can spot a signs of stroke before you even know you're having one! 📱🧠 The phone in your pocket already maps 30,000 infrared points across your face every time you unlock it... and researchers have worked out that the same tech can detect facial asymmetry and arm weakness that can signal a stroke and combine it with speech changes to make a recommendation.
FAST AI developed by neurologist Radoslav Raychev MD at UCLA's David Geffen School of Medicine and validated on patient data between 2021 and 2022 across four stroke centres, uses machine learning to detect facial asymmetry, arm weakness and speech changes, three cardinal signs of stroke - and then even ask the user to try to do a task or two to help confirm signs of a possible stroke.
In clinical testing across 400 patients at five hospitals it detected true stroke symptoms with a sensitivity of 0.99 – performing in line with a neurologist's clinical examination. Separately, biomedical engineers at RMIT University built a facial screening tool that analyses asymmetry in facial muscle movement and achieved 82% accuracy in identifying stroke symptoms from video alone.
The hardware to run all of this is already in hundreds of millions of pockets – camera, accelerometer, gyroscope, microphone, capable together of assessing the FAST signs in real time. Raychev's longer term vision extends beyond the app; 'when someone's on a video chat, or talking to a virtual assistant, or in an autonomous driving vehicle, we want passive surveillance to capture symptoms as the stroke happens.'
But... FAST AI remains in R&D and is NOT yet available to the public; no release date has been confirmed. ARNI Stroke Rehab & Recovery says: the technology to spot a stroke from a smartphone already exists and has been validated against neurologist-level accuracy. An Iphone that knows your face could one day notice when something is dangerously wrong with you. I guess, watch this space. 📱💙

I had silent stroke, no facial drooping so clearly not that clever
Have you tried horse riding post stroke? When stroke survivors ride, the movement of the horse helps the brain relearn the necessary muscle coordination required for walking, without putting additional strain on the survivor.

I wanna try this 💗💗💗
Yes, I am back riding again. Learning dressage tests is great memory exercise too!
We’ve just moved to the New Forest. I’ve had 2 lessons so far but it’s slowly coming back even had a short canter in my last lesson. Just one point I’d make, mount on your strong side. I made the mistake of mounting on my weak left side wreaked my left knee.
I used to ride in my teens rang rda it was £40 for half hour!!!
Yes great therapy and via RDA Riding for the Disabled.
Any places in US?

I tried to get on a horse in supposedly at Peaguses riding academy which I trusted and it was a disaster. THEY could not get me mounted however they were doing it wrong on an English saddle. ??? They don't use western saddles so they sent me home never to call me again.very unprofessional and I hate to say that for Peagus they typically they are excellent.Im sue they are use to kids with disabilities.well I have a disability to a70 yr old stroke survivor and I know the horse will help. Any comments and don't dare say I'm to old
Hi all, Dr Tom here! For the last year or so, I've been writing a new book with the aim of publication this year (on our 25th anniversary). I'm now in the finishing stages and I'd like to include YOU, loyal ARNI Stroke Rehab and Recovery readers - and put your name in the book!
You can get in it simply by submitting here at the end of this post or to me at tom@arni.uk.com your best TIP or TIPS (one or however many you like) that you've personally created OR heard about, implement and use to great success to help yourself self-manage and/or retrain. It could be ANYTHING, but it's got to be useful to help you either live life and/or recover. And let me know how you discovered it, and what problem it solves. Anything to do with any limitations from stroke, ok??
So, examples for inclusion will include my own things I've come up with/developed for recovery and then passed on to others, like these: have YOU got any clever tips like these? If so, write them here in response, and/or to me at tom@arni.uk.com please! Also please expand a bit on the circumstances on each so I can see the context, like my examples:
1. I took to wearing a watch on my left wrist, palm side down, so to find out the time, I have to turn (supinate) my wrist each time (which is of course a really big move for upper limb rehab). This REALLY WORKS to encourage constant rotational movement of the arm at the elbow (mind you, you have be curious about the time!)
2. Washing underneath my good arm was impossible in the bath until I discovered I could lather my good knee with soap and clean my underarm wonderfully with by rubbing it on my knee!
3. I had a very hard time putting my shoes and socks on, but discovered early on that if I sat on my bed and rolled onto my back with my knees bent, it was all much easier to do. I STILL use this technique 30 years later - used it this morning as I've smashed my good knee extremely badly (trying to play football with my young son!)
GO FOR IT! Is there anything you do or have developed? Or anything you think I really should include as a stroke survivor tip regardless of whether it comes from personal experience? Or anything that your stroke survivor loved one does that you'd like to share?
If I get enough, I'm thinking to create a Tips section at the end of each chapter by the way. And btw, your Tips can encompass anything you like - mainly tips for the community stroke survivors rather than in hospital, but if you have anything good, SEND IT ANYWAY ok?! Over to you! Dr Tom ;)

Sticky mat has so many uses - holding plate in place, paper when writing which helps your handwriting. I also put it on my good leg and put my bad leg on top of the sticky mat to keep my leg in place while I put my afo and shoe on
The rowing stroke when using an indoor rower is about 65-75% leg work and 25-35% upper body work. Each rowing stroke involves full compression and extension of the legs, working the muscles of the calves, thighs, hamstrings, buttocks and hips, shoulders, back, arms and hands as well as your ‘core’ abdominal muscles. Because it engages so many muscle groups simultaneously, rowing gets the heart-rate up nicely, pumping oxygen-rich blood around your system in readiness for exertion.
