Abstract :
A stroke is a medical condition in which poor blood flow to the brain causes cell death. There are two main types of stroke: ischemic, due to lack of blood flow, and hemorrhagic, due to bleeding. Both cause parts of the brain to stop functioning properly. A wide range of treatment techniques and approaches from different philosophical backgrounds are utilized in neurological rehabilitation. Research to support the different approaches varies hugely, with a wealth of research to support the use of some techniques while other approaches have limited evidence to support its use but rely on anecdotal evidence. This paper provides a brief overview of some of the approaches used in stroke rehabilitation witch evidence based clinical guidance recommendations
