REWIRE YOUR BRAIN, RECLAIM YOUR LIFE. 🥇

Body: Dealing with life after a stroke is tough, but recovery is possible! At TASS Physio, we focus on Neuroplasticity—the brain’s amazing ability to rewire itself.
Our Goal: To help you regain lost function, maximize independence, and get you back to your definition of “normal.”

Our specialized stroke rehabilitation is intensive, targeted, and personalized:

1. Gait Retraining: Focused exercises and techniques to re-learn walking and improve balance/coordination.
2. Motor Retraining: Repetitive, task-specific practice to help the brain re-map movements (e.g., reaching, gripping).
3. Spasticity Management: Techniques to reduce muscle stiffness and improve your range of motion.
4. Balance & Strength: Building core stability and lower-body strength to prevent falls and improve mobility.

We use evidence-based techniques and continuous assessment to ensure your program evolves as you do.
We assist you by:

Maximizing functional independence (getting dressed, walking safely).
Reducing injury risk (especially from falls).
Building the strength and endurance needed for daily activities.
We’re not just treating symptoms; we’re rebuilding connection.

Whether you’ve just been discharged or are managing chronic symptoms, it’s never too late to benefit from specialized neurological physiotherapy.
Let TASS Physio be your partner in recovery.

A stroke happens when blood flow to a part of the brain is interrupted, either by a blockage (ischemic stroke) or a bleed (hemorrhagic stroke).
When brain cells are deprived of oxygen and nutrients, they can die, leading to sudden loss of function controlled by that area (e.g., movement, speech, balance).

The effects of a stroke vary widely, but commonly include:

Hemiparesis/Hemiplegia: Weakness or paralysis on one side of the body.
Balance & Coordination Issues: Difficulty walking, standing, or moving safely.
Spasticity: Tight, stiff muscles that restrict movement.
Fatigue: Extreme tiredness.
Recovery is a journey, and TASS Physio is here to guide it.

Whether you’re in the acute stages or years into your recovery, TASS Physio is committed to helping you maximize your function, regain independence, and improve your quality of life.

Reclaim Your Heart Health: CABG Rehab at TASS Physio! 🚀

Undergoing a Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG) surgery is a massive step towards a longer, healthier life. Your heart is stronger, but your recovery is just beginning!

At TASS Physio, we specialize in the crucial, life-changing journey of Cardiac Rehabilitation, guiding you safely back to full strength, confidence, and activity. Our program is always coordinated with your Cardiologist and Cardiac Rehab Team.

The Phased Rehab Process: Building Back Stronger

Cardiac Rehab is a structured, progressive journey, typically divided into phases where Physiotherapy plays a vital role:

Phase 1: In-Hospital Recovery (Early Mobilisation)

Focus: Immediate stability, proper breathing mechanics, and preventing post-operative complications like pneumonia or blood clots.

Physio Role: Teaching safe bed mobility, supported coughing techniques (to protect the sternum), gentle range-of-motion exercises, and early, supervised walking for short distances.

Phase 2: Supervised Outpatient Rehab (The TASS Physio Stage)

Focus: Structured, monitored exercise to gradually increase your heart’s capacity and overall fitness. This is where most patients attend the dedicated cardiac rehab program, often collaborating with us for advanced, tailored physical therapy.

Physio Role:

Monitored Aerobic Training: Prescribing walking, cycling, or other activities at a safe, pre-determined heart rate (HR-guided exercise).

Sternal Precautions: Strict education and training to protect the healing breastbone (typically no lifting over 5-10 lbs or certain arm movements for 6-8 weeks).

Progressive Strength: Introducing very light resistance (bands/weights) for lower body and core, gradually progressing to full body strength training after sternal clearance (usually 8-12+ weeks).

Risk Factor Education: Teaching you how to monitor your body, manage energy, and understand vital signs.

Physio Role: Teaching safe bed mobility, supported coughing techniques (to protect the sternum), gentle range-of-motion exercises, and early, supervised walking for short distances.

Our initial focus is on reducing your pain and restoring basic, functional movement. This is a mix of hands-on and active techniques.

Pain Reduction: This may include manual therapy (mobilisation/massage), dry needling, or advice on safe movements and positioning.

Education is Key: We teach you why you have pain and how to manage it actively, empowering you to control your symptoms and reduce fear of movement.

Initial Exercises: Gentle exercises to restore range of motion and activate deep core stability muscles, setting the stage for rehab.

This is the most critical phase—building resilience to prevent recurrence. Our program is progressive and tailored to your specific goals, whether that’s lifting your kids, getting back to running, or competing in a sport.

Phase 1: Stability & Control: Focus on isolating and strengthening your core stabilisers (like the transversus abdominis and multifidus) and restoring proper movement patterns (Motor Control).

Phase 2: Strength & Endurance: Gradually introducing compound movements and resistance training to build overall strength in your hips, glutes, and back, preparing the spine for daily loads.

Phase 3: Function & Performance: Integrating sport-specific or activity-specific movements, building high-level endurance, and ensuring your body can handle the demands of your desired lifestyle.

Long-Term Strategy: We equip you with a sustainable home program and essential lifestyle/ergonomic advice to manage flare-ups and maintain long-term spinal health.

At Tass Physio, we know that movement is medicine, especially when managing Osteoarthritis (OA). While rest might seem tempting, the right type of exercise is crucial for reducing pain, improving joint function, and keeping you active.

Exercise isn’t about wearing out your joints—it’s about nurturing them! Our personalized OA rehab programs focus on:

Strength Training: Building up the muscles around your affected joint (like the quads for knee OA) provides crucial support and shock absorption.

Mobility & Flexibility: Gentle movements to maintain your joint’s range of motion and reduce stiffness.

Low-Impact Cardio: Activities like walking, swimming, or cycling that keep you healthy without overloading your joints.
