Stroke treatment in Salamanca

A stroke occurs when blood flow to a part of the brain is interrupted, which affects the functioning of the area involved. It is a situation that requires urgent care, and subsequent rehabilitation plays a central role in recovery.

Warning signs:

• Sudden weakness or numbness of the face, arm, or leg, almost always on one side only.
• Sudden difficulty speaking or understanding.
• Loss of balance or vision with no apparent cause.

When to act? In the face of these sudden signs, every moment counts; seeking care immediately is the most important thing.

The role of rehabilitation: once the acute stage has passed, the physical therapist supports the recovery of movement and function, with the help of the complementary therapist. Resuming activities with the guidance of professionals aids the recovery process.
