When a person has hemiplegia, one side of their body becomes weak or difficult to move. This can make simple daily tasks—like standing up, walking, eating, or using the hand—feel tiring or frustrating. But the good news is that the body and brain have a strong ability to recover.
Doing regular exercises is one of the most important parts of recovery. These exercises slowly activate the weak muscles, improve blood flow, reduce stiffness, and help the brain make new connections. Over time, the patient starts to gain better control, strength, and balance.
Exercises also help the patient feel more confident and independent. Even small improvements—like lifting the arm a little higher or taking a smoother step—can make a big difference in daily life. With patience, consistency, and proper guidance from a physiotherapist, recovery becomes smoother and more hopeful.
