A stroke happens when blood flow to part of the brain is interrupted or reduced. This limits the supply of oxygen and nutrients.
This can affect movement, speech, memory, vision, and emotions.
Every stroke is different and recovery is different for everyone. But we can help you to manage and improve your quality of life.
