Stroke Rehabilitation
The goal of rehabilitation after stroke is to teach you to become as independent as possible. The keystone to stroke rehabilitation is reteaching the brain to do the functions that have been affected by the stroke. The brain has an incredible ability to retrain a different area of the brain to take over the functions of the brain that have been lost due to the stroke. This is called neuroplasticity. “Neuro” refers to the brain cells and “plasticity” refers to the pliable nature of different brain cells to take over lost functions. With rehabilitation, brain cells regenerate, re-establish, and rearrange the needed brain circuits to resume lost functions despite the original cells and pathways having been damaged by the stroke. The brain effectively compensates for the dead or damaged brain cells. In instances where it cannot establish these new connections, rehabilitation works to teach the brain and body to compensate for the disabilities that occur due to the stroke.
Primary Care
What is Physical Therapy (PT)? PT is a science-based approach to treating a variety of diagnoses, health conditions or injuries for patients of all age groups. After a thorough evaluation, physical therapists create a plan to improve mobility, quality of life and prevent further injury or disability. They do this through prescribed exercise, hands-on care, and patient education. PT's work as a team with your primary care physician and other health care professionals involved in your care.

Mental Health
A stroke affects the whole person; depending on the severity it can physically affect both your upper and lower limbs, your cognition, your vision, your speech and your emotional and mental health. As such, it is important to work with a full multidisciplinary team in order to best treat and manage all affected aspects. Your team may include your doctor, your Physical Therapist, a speech pathologist, an occupational therapist, a dietician, a psychologist, a social worker, and other health care professionals. Together this team of professionals can address your deficits as a whole and work together to provide you with the most effective treatment to maximize your overall abilities.

MRI
Computed Tomography (CT) scan and/or Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scan: These tests are done on your brain and used to locate the exact location of the stroke and to determine if it has been caused by a blockage or a bleed. These tests can also help rule out other conditions that may be causing symptoms, such as an infection or a brain tumour

Plantar Fasciitis
"Due to my physically demanding job and my age, I have had many injuries and surgeries. I started PT with Scott at SMPT years ago to help me get back to work and to manage my pain. I've suffered with plantar fasciitis and a number of knee surgeries and in 2013 I had total knee replacement. With compassion and one-on-one treatment, I recovered quickly. Later, I had chronic back pain and my insurance changed so I had to go to a larger PT facility -- I was not happy with the care. I felt like a number and an inconvenience. I am going back to SMPT where I know I am in good hands." --
