Paralysis is a medical condition that is often caused by the damage in the nervous system, especially in the spinal cord. A person with paralysis experiences motor loss (loss of muscle function) and sensory loss (loss of sensations in the affected part). But with physiotherapy one can regain and retain the body’s natural strength.
When you opt for home-based physiotherapy for paralysis from an eminent and experienced home healthcare service provider like HCAH, you are ensured world-class treatment by an expert team of highly qualified and professionally trained physiotherapists. As the first step towards creating a comprehensive & personalized recovery program, our assigned physiotherapist does a complete assessment of the patient’s physical and medical condition. Basis the results of the assessment, with consideration of the patient’s medical history and unique needs to achieve functional mobility to carry out everyday tasks, the physiotherapist charts out a customized outcome-based treatment plan that’s best suited to their condition. The treatment plan is further discussed with an experienced clinical team before it’s put into action.

Being surrounded by friends and family during the treatment process can help boost the confidence of the patient and positively contribute to their speedy recovery.
Personalised treatment: Generally, in a clinic, a large number of patients are present and physiotherapists often find it hard to focus on any one patient. Opting for a private physiotherapy treatment at home gives the patient the advantage of undivided attention and care by the physiotherapist resulting in their faster recovery.
Physiotherapy at door step: Imagine being able to rest and recover at home after a good physiotherapy session. It’s possible only with home-based physiotherapy treatment. Home physiotherapy gives you and the patient the advantage of skipping the hassles of traffic and waiting in line for the appointment. What it also gives you is the benefit of regular patient progress report, periodical reviews or audits by experienced clinical team and an outcome-based discharge plan once the patient is through with the physiotherapy at home program.
Your loved one has just been diagnosed with paralysis and it’s only natural for them to feel angry, frustrated, unhappy and helpless in the state they now are in. Getting used to one’s invalid physically state takes time and as a family member, the least you can do is stay calm, relaxed and supportive. Speak to them often and tell them how you care for them and trying your best to be mindful of their needs. If you find it hard initially to adjust to your newfound role as a caregiver, take professional caregiver classes to help you understand the best way in which you can communicate with your loved one especially when they are in some kind of pain or distress.
Always remember that no matter how hard you try you are going to falter. And it’s completely okay! Resistance and ungratefulness from your loved ones can leave you in tears and you may find it difficult to hide your feelings. But try to suppress your anger and stay calm. Try to distract your mind by listening to soothing music or meditate. Talk to a friend or just go out for a walk. Join an online support group or community where you can share your experience and learn from others on how to handle the situation better. These things can help you calm down and not feel upset for long. Remember, your loved one has no control over their feelings and it’s only your love and support that can help them emerge stronger and embrace their condition with dignity.
Often times it becomes difficult to help a paralysis patient with their everyday needs like walking, bathing, and feeding etc., which require intensive physical effort on your part. It can be physically draining and lead to stress and body pain issues of your own. But you can take help of physical or occupational therapists to assist you in the carrying out everyday chores of the patient and also teach you how best to use your body for these tasks without stressing it out.
