He lost all his speech, mobility and use of his right side- face, shoulder, arm, hand, fingers and was confined to a wheelchair. He underwent 8 months of rehabilitation. In hospital where he regained some basic speech, was able to walk with the aid of a 4 wheelie walker but still had very little recognition of his right arm. He was sent home and we travelled daily to attend rehabilitation\/physiotherapy sessions. Being a trained P.E. Teacher, I devised an exercise program which we worked on extensively at home as well. Always searching for information dealing with ways to help stroke victims, I found NeuroAiD\u2122, read all the testimonials and I was impressed.<\/p>\n<p>Doug started NeuroAiD\u2122 in May 2011. We continued the physio sessions and increased the exercises at home to several times each day. Within the first week I noticed a great improvement with his posture. After 1 month he had regained a \u201cnormal facial look\u201d, was recognising and beginning to use his right side of his body, which we were all thrilled with. Even though it has been 2 years now since Doug\u2019s stroke, as a family we decided that the wonderful progress he has made since being on NeuroAiD\u2122 warranted him continuing on it.<\/p>\n<p>Doug has made great progress in all areas, regaining his mobility using a walking stick, he can eat, dress and perform some helpful tasks around the home i.e. he put together a wind-up hose reel, can have conversations with people and they comment on how much he has improved with his clarity. Doug has recently become a gym member and attends 3-4 times a week where he follows a program designed for him. He uses the trundle walker, exercise bike and weights and is now doing crunches on the mat to regain his 6 pack! His determination and motivation to improve and try and regain what was taken from him is highly commendable.<\/p>\n<p>We thank NeuroAiD\u2122 and the support from the team. Their information and constant communication and care has been great.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>*Pictures are not the actual patients[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row type=&#8221;in_container&#8221; full_screen_row_position=&#8221;middle&#8221; column_margin=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction_tablet=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction_phone=&#8221;default&#8221; scene_position=&#8221;center&#8221; text_color=&#8221;dark&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221;&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":253039,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"quote","meta":{"cybocfi_hide_featured_image":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[80],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-253038","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-quote","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-testimonials-pt-br","8":"post_format-post-format-quote"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/neuroaid.com\/pt-br\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/253038","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/neuroaid.com\/pt-br\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/neuroaid.com\/pt-br\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/neuroaid.com\/pt-br\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/neuroaid.com\/pt-br\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=253038"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/neuroaid.com\/pt-br\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/253038\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/neuroaid.com\/pt-br\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/253039"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/neuroaid.com\/pt-br\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=253038"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/neuroaid.com\/pt-br\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=253038"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/neuroaid.com\/pt-br\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=253038"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
