How it works
Each answer scores points, and the total is shown as a score or percentage with a category. The questions are practical daily-life items chosen by our physiotherapists; they guide treatment but are not a diagnosis. Six functional tasks commonly tracked in stroke rehab are scored from independent to unable. A lower percentage means higher function.

Physiotherapy treatment
Task specific rehabilitation, gait and balance training is the core of physiotherapy for stroke. After an assessment, your physiotherapist sets a plan built around sit-to-stand, walking, reaching and balance, progressed as your results improve. Hands-on treatment, pain relief and education are added where they help.

Stop and seek medical help for chest pain, fainting, sudden weakness or numbness, loss of bladder or bowel control, or severe or rapidly worsening pain.
