Sitting, standing, and transferring between surfaces are essential movements required for everyday independence. Following a stroke, weakness, poor balance, and reduced coordination may make these activities difficult. Structured Stroke Rehabilitation can help patients practise these movements safely.

Rehabilitation professionals assess the patient's trunk control, muscle strength, balance, and ability to maintain different positions.

Treatment may include supported sitting, weight-shifting exercises, controlled standing practice, and sit-to-stand training.

Transfer training is another important area. Patients may practise moving between a bed, wheelchair, and chair using suitable assistance and techniques.

These activities are selected according to the individual's physical abilities and medical condition.

Improving transfer skills can make daily routines easier and may reduce dependence on caregivers. However, patients who have significant weakness or balance difficulties should always receive appropriate supervision.

Regular assessment helps therapists identify improvements and introduce more challenging activities when suitable.

Seha Garden provides stroke rehabilitation services to support patients working towards improved movement and functional independence.
