Introduction[edit | edit source]
Following a stroke, the healthy areas of the brain around the damaged brain tissue region are able to compensate and develop new functions. This rewiring and reorganizing process is known as neuroplasticity. Physiotherapy stroke treatments promote neuroplasticity to improve motor function.
Physical activity (PA) can promote neural plasticity. The effects of PA include: reduced inflammatory processes and apoptotic marker expression; promotes brain angiogenesis; promotes several growth factor expression; improves the activation of affected muscles during exercise.
Additionally PA is an important nonpharmacological intervention that provides neuroprotective effects capable of reducing adverse effects of brain ischemia, with prestroke regular PE decreasing the severity of motor effects.[1]
