I can't say enough about how Stronger After Stroke has influenced my life after my stroke four years ago. This isn't just a book about stroke recovery. It is stroke recovery in microcosm, an essential part no less important than any activity you'll ever do or piece of equipment you'll ever have. Every stroke and every stroke victim is different, but each stroke victim can come away from this book understanding what stroke recovery is, able to tailor their own unique start point for recovery or able to carry recovery on through to completion once begun. Only some of the highlights I've gleaned are:Recovery is hard work. That's the overriding theme of this book and the author hammers away at it relentlessly, using such phrases as "Challenge Equals Recovery" and "Push the Issue" He understands far more than anybody else what stroke recovery really means and what it requires. I was in the Army infantry and involved in sports all my life, but recovery is the very toughest thing I've ever done. Beginning stroke recoverers need to be prepared for what's coming and informed that anything less than full commitment is really just a waste of time. Stronger After Stroke does that, and that alone is a crucial service.Background concepts and latest research findings. Neuroplasticity is the foundation behind stroke recovery and its effect on the medical and scientific worlds is nothing less than revolutionary. The author explains neuroplasticity clearly and completely, interspersing examples of it throughout the text along with many other vital concepts such as synergistic movement, spasticity, learned nonuse and the 4 phases of recovery. The reading may flow easily but you'll come away with a comprehensive understanding of stroke recovery thinking and terminology. Also, here is where the major revisions of this new 2nd Edition really make a difference over the 1st Edition. Thanks to neuroplasticity stroke recovery is changing fast, but Stronger After Stroke has been thoroughly updated to relay new findings and take advantage of incoming developments.New therapies, new methods, new equipment. There's so many. Stronger After Stroke covers mirror therapy, induced constraint therapy, mental practice, virtual reality, electrical stimulation, bilateral training, music and rhythm, gyms and home set-ups, a ton of equipment and the list goes on. The value of this material to me is its usefulness as a reference guide. Stroke recovery is so complex and so long with so many pitfalls, twists and turns you'll be returning to this information time and again for new ideas and suggestions. Believe me, recovery is above all else sheer monotony and mind-numbing repetition. Your program must stay fresh and varied to keep it going (see the section on "Therapy Soup: Mix and Match"). Again, the newness of the 2nd Edition really helps. With the new "Get Your Hand Back" section my hand is once again showing noticeable improvement.Safety. Take it from this bull-headed idiot personally, this is the Stronger After Stroke subject you should consciously elevate to the top of your priority list, as emphasized by the author repeatedly. I didn't and learned the hard way that while mind-blowing agony from injury is great for increasing body sensation, recovery stops cold, and it really stops if you're dead. There's a "What Precautions Should Be Taken" part in every section, as well as a full chapter on "Safeguarding the Recovery Investment" and individual safety tips throughout where appropriate.Strategy and tips for recovery. Stronger After Stroke provides an invaluable and endless array of ways to plan, individualize, and most important, maintain your recovery program. Task-specific training, for one example, will make it meaningful, measuring your progess will evaluate it, the recovery calendar will structure it and the stages of recovery glimpses its future. Eating habits, sleeping habits, lifestyle, work schedule and a myriad of other details are all examined for their impact on recovery and how best to blend them into your program. All of this matters; exactly how much you make it matter will determine exactly how well you recover (the author calls this "Living Recovery")Although Stronger After Stroke is fantastic as a reference, it is an integrated whole. It really is a complete map for a successful journey of recovery and, as such, no aspect of it can be readily ignored. Miss something and that may become the point where your recovery stumbles or dead-ends. Here I would like to urge readers to pay special thought and attention to two sections I think fundamental to recovery, the chapter "Motivation: The Recovery Fuel" and the section "Keep the Core Values Close". This is unbelievably essential stuff.There's so much more, but I have one more comment. Back in the those first dark days of life as a stroke victim Stronger After Stroke gave me hope when nobody and nothing else did. My own doctors and therapists had me relegated to a wheelchair the rest of my life, and they did it with all the nonchalance and carelessness of a remark on today's weather. Those were the people I entrusted my life to. But this book told me I was in charge of my own recovery, that the way my life went now was my responsibility. It would take an unbelievable amount of hard work but I could do it. It was all up to me. I took that message and held onto it for dear life. I'll never let it go.The results? Four years that seemed so long at times are now gone and I walk normally now, albeit only a few dozen yards at a time. That will improve with time and effort. By the end of the year I fully expect to walk along our beautiful redwood trails and sandy beaches just as I would have before that fateful day in June, 2009. I'll begin running. My arm is at full strength and I can draw again, crudely. I owe all this, my recovery, to one book and its author, Peter G. Levine. I cannot thank him enough.
Must read for every stroke victim and caregiver. My stroke hit in June 2016 and for the first few weeks my right side was completely immobile. I went through some pretty dark days and this book gave me the hope that some recovery was possible. After much hard work over the last 6 months I'm now able to walk with a cane and use my right hand for most activities. I believe that my recovery will continue and this book is an excellent source of information to help guide that process.
My husband had a severe, near fatal CVA stroke and my spirits were starting to fear his recovery was as far as it would go. I bought this book and within the first few pages, I was sitting up, reading intently, my heart lifting, warm and full of renewed hope.The key point this doctor made crystal clear was that the ONLY injured part of his body was somewhere within the BRAIN. The rest of his disabilities were not actually what they appeared to be. And I came away from this book knowing that he will recover fully, or near to it. With the right understanding and appropriate action taken to heal THE BRAIN. The rest would follow through.
It is a superb book both for the stroke survivor and for family to learn about strokes and how to approach rehabilitation. Through out the book it continues to come back to the grim reality that the MOST effective person in giving yourself the greatest potential for recovery is YOU the stroke survivor. YOU are the one that needs to have the motivation to surpass anything the therapists or Dr's might say. The therapists are clinicians who have your best interest in mind but they have only so much time to work with you. They give you the tools, advise you etc etc. but you must do the work. That is the only way you will improve. The book points this out very well. I would read sections of a chapter to him in the evening while he was practicing walking with his walker, doing things to help his brain relearn things he knew how to do but could not do. It takes 100's of times doing something not 20-40 times. I found the book very readable and well researched. The interesting thing to me is that NO therapist my brother has had from the acute rehab to out patient rehab has heard of the book. I was recommending the book to them along with an excellent online site called Flint Rehab. There was nothing negative about the book except I wish Dr Peter Levine had a site to go to for questions etc.This book is a must have!
I have been a Mentor for stroke patients for the past fifteen years. I have ten books about stroke recovery but none come close to this one. My only surprise is that only 70% of reviews gave this book 5 stars. Peter Levine has hit the mark explaining neuro plasticity as a key ingredient for stroke recovery. He offers a true roadmap of repetitive exercises and strategies to improve or even reverse the weakness and spasticity in upper and lower limbs as a result of stroke. This book should be a must read for neurologists, physiatrists, stroke survivors, caregivers, and all professionals connected with stroke rehabilitation.
Everyone who has a stroke, and their caregivers, should be given a copy of this book - to understand the four week government funded "game" being played with their therapy. The author describes the limitations of the four week "therapy" being practiced in the stroke treatment locations. Then, and much more importantly, goes on to describe the fundamentals of long-term therapy and the responsibility for success that can only come from the stroke patient and caregivers. You'll need to read and read several times over, and keep by your side as a reference, and, importantly, use it as the basis for defining a long-term plan with any therapists consulted.
