My father who is 72 hours old, having brain stroke on 31.12.2022 and he is recovering, but nothing is improving, physiotherapy is going on and on, but nothing is happening

Ans: Hello Amit,
To reduce the chances of stroke or any disease for that matter a healthy lifestyle is important.
You need to take care of the 4 pillars of wellness: 1) Nutrition 2) Exercises 3) Mindfulness and meditation 4)Sleep/restfulness.
1) Regarding nutrition it will be better to go to a proper nutritionist who can guide you depending on your body type. However overall including fruits, nuts, seeds, salads, vegetable juices can help to prevent chances of stroke.
2) Various forms of exercises including walking, yoga, strength training, cardiovascular training should be done for 45 -60 minutes 4-5 times a week.
3) It will be good to practice 10 minutes of some form of mindfulness/meditation technique like focusing on breathing etc.
4) Deep sleep and to feel rested from within is also important.
All the above 4 you can discuss with a good lifestyle coach and hence reduce the chances of stroke.
All the best!

Ans: Hello Anonymous,
Yes a physiotherapist can come for few sessions and teach him certain exercises after evaluating him as each person's issues after a brain stroke are different so the treatment has to be customised. Certain basic range of motion and balance exercises should help him.
A yoga teacher can teach him simple pranayamas which do help to improve the oxygenation to the brain and hence the entire body.
Also it is a good idea to consult a nutritionist once who can add some healthy options like nuts, seeds, vegetable juices, turmeric etc which can help rejuvenate the brain cells.
All the best!
