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.

PA effects in the peri-infarct site (post stroke): promotes cerebral angiogenesis, vasomotor reactivity, neurotrophic factor release; reduces apoptosis processes, excitotoxicity, and inflammation.

PA provides neuroprotective effects capable of reducing adverse effects of brain ischemia, with prestroke regular PE decreasing the severity of motor effects.[1]

A novel approach for stroke therapy combines physical training with pharmacological treatments, known to promote neuroplasticity. [1]
