Every brain aneurysm survivor's recovery is different, yet most will face life-changing challenges on their journey. These changes can be physical, emotional, and cognitive. It is important to understand that many survivors have struggles that can only be seen underneath the surface.

1 in 50 people.
6.8 million Americans.
That’s how many are living with an unruptured brain aneurysm, often without symptoms.

The reality is sobering: about half of ruptured brain aneurysms are fatal. And for survivors, nearly 66% face lasting neurological challenges. This is why awareness, research, and support matter.

Stroke recovery shouldn’t stop before you’re ready!

The RESTORE study — led nationally by Dr. André Machado and Cleveland Clinic — is testing whether brain stimulation ( ) can help survivors regain use of their arm and hand.

We are honored to bring this groundbreaking research to patients here in the Delaware Valley, with Thomas Jefferson University and Jefferson Health serving as one of the national study sites.
