Stroke

Origami client works with physical therapist in the therapy gym

Stroke, also known as a cerebrovascular accident (CVA), is the leading cause of adult disability. The two most common types of stroke are hemorrhagic and ischemic. A hemorrhagic stroke occurs when a blood vessel in the brain bursts, resulting in bleeding in the surrounding tissue. Ischemic stroke occurs when a blood clot blocks a vessel carrying blood to the brain, cutting off blood supply to the brain.

Proper rehabilitation following a stroke is essential in maximizing long-term independence and recovery. Our specialized interdisciplinary team includes speech-language pathologists and psychologists, as well as occupational, physical, and recreational therapists. Origami’s stroke rehabilitation focuses on individualized treatment plans that are evidence-based to maximize neurological return and function.
