Stroke Recovery

Back on His Feet: Paraplegic Man Stands

The news stories made it sound too good to be true: A man who had been paralyzed from the mid-chest down since 2006 was able to stand up on his own (with some assistance for balance), thanks to an implanted stimulation device that sent electrical pulses to his spinal cord. That’s right -- he got up and stood. It sounded amazing. When I called the lead researcher to learn more, I found out that the results aren’t exactly what they seem at first glance... but they are exciting nonetheless.

My recovery of stroke started in same way. My Physiotherapist too passed low voltage for 1-2 minutes for one week,though I  did not feel anything sensations that time may it help to activate some neuron.As I wrote earlier

that with regular exercises I am almost recovered .
