Publisher's Summary

Now in its third edition, Stronger After Stroke gives the power of recovery to the listeners by providing simple-to-follow instructions for reaching the highest possible level of recovery. The audiobook's neuroplastic recovery model stresses repetition of task-specific practice, proper scheduling of practice, setting goals, and measuring progress to achieve optimal results. Researcher Peter G. Levine breaks down the science and gives survivors evidence-based tools to retrain the brain and take charge of recovery.

Stronger After Stroke introduces listeners to leading-edge stroke recovery information while simplifying the process to attain specific benchmarks. Also included is a sample recovery schedule, a helpful glossary of frequently used stroke recovery terms, and a list of resources for listeners to research emerging stroke recovery options.

The new third edition of Stronger After Stroke features:

  • Complete update of all chapters to reflect new knowledge about maximizing recovery
  • The latest research insights applied to individual recovery programs
  • Steps to cope with challenges at each stage of recovery and achieve success
  • Strategies to save time and money
  • New chapters on using electrical stimulation, reducing post-stroke pain, and understanding spasticity

Wise advice

Particularly liked the ‘use it or lose it’ ethos where it’s up to stroke survivor to work hard in rehabilitation to achieve maximum recovery. I also luke how the author encourages safety and managing fatigue whilst on this journey to get best results. About to listen a second time to bed down the learnings.

Robot reading a list

Hard to engage in this book, narrator keeps the same tone throughout, reading sentences like a list. May be helpful for the patient with lower health literacy, as a reading book.
