A stroke occurs when a blood vessel, which is carrying oxygen and nutrients to the brain, bursts or is blocked by a clot. This causes an interruption of the blood supply to part of the brain. This can damage or destroy brain cells which will affect body functions. For example, if a stroke damages the part of the brain that controls limb movement, a person’s ability to move an arm or leg may be affected. A stroke can also affect mental processes such as how people feel, think, communicate, or learn. In the video on this page you'll learn some methods of Qigong for stroke recovery which can speed up the process, regardless of how long ago the stroke occurred.
Janice Tucker is a practitioner of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Medical Qigong. She is also the founder of the Space To Relax online programme of Qigong video lessons (https://spacetorelax.com/space-to-rel...).

Why Is Qigong Helpful in Stroke Recovery?
1. As I explained above, if you have a stroke, your brain is affected. Qigong helps you to form new connections in your brain as the movements involved are ones which the body isn't used to carrying out. These new movements promote new brain connections.
2. Qigong involves repetitive movements which, practised every day, over and over, help to reinforce the new neurological connections in the brain. Repetition is the key here. The more repetition, the more stable these new connections become.
3. Qigong is free and easily accessible. Unlike attending the gym, physiotherapist or swimming to help with recovery from stroke, Qigong methods, once you have learned them, can be performed in the comfort of your home for no cost. Other methods to help recovery may incur a cost or visit to a special facility which is not always practical. Qigong can also be performed from a standing, sitting or lying down position so can be adapted to the range of movement a person may have following a stroke.
4. Qigong can easily be integrated into daily activities. This makes the repetition aspect easy to carry out as you can do Qigong when you are standing in a queue, walking, driving, standing, reaching for things, etc.
5. Qigong Helps Balance The Whole Body. Working from a whole body perspective is very important subsequent to a stroke as this means that the parts of your body which may have been weakened by the stroke can be assisted by the stronger parts.

INTRODUCTION
In Traditional Chinese Medicine the Gallbladder system is paired with
the Liver and both are associated with the season of Spring. The
Gallbladder pathway of Qi flow starts at the outside corner of each eye
and zig-zags around the head, down the back of the neck to the
shoulders, and then down the sides of the torso and legs to end at the
outside corner of the 4th toe.
The healthy function of the Gallbladder include:
1. Good posture, flexibility, coordination and balance;
2. Storing bile for the healthy breakdown of fats;
3. Courage to follow through with decisions;
4. Physical and emotional clear vision (along with the Liver).
The unhealthy functions of the Gallbladder include:
1. Headaches and migraines;
2. Pains in the sides of the body (including gallbladder pain);
3. Nausea, vomiting, constipation;
4. Neck and shoulder pain;
5. Sciatic pain, pains and cramps in the legs;
6. Lack of courage and fighting spirit, no boldness to follow through with your decisions, low self-esteem.
7. Vertigo.
QIGONG EXERCISES
Any Qigong methods involving the stimulation and stretching of the
Gallbladder channel along the sides of the body can be helpful. The
three exercises in this video show you an example of the types of
movements which can help create the conditions for open and unobstructed
Qi flow in the Gallbladder channel.
1. Holding the Qi ball in the "Standing Like a Tree" posture (https://spacetorelax.com/lesson-31-qi...) and turning the body from side to side.
2. Cross body stretch of the arms.
3. Supporting Heaven method with a pause when the arms are fully
extended above your head to further extend and lean to the right and
left.
ACUPRESSURE POINTS
1. Jianjing (Gallbladder 21). To help relieve pain and discomfort in
the neck, shoulders and head. NOTE: CONTRAINDICATED IN PREGNANCY - DO
NOT USE!
2. Yanglingquan (Gallbladder 34). For digestive issues, gallbladder pain, sciatic pain and leg cramps.
WHAT TO DO NEXT
1. You'll find a few other video class replays which can also be used to

Empowering the Mind to Heal the Brain for Stroke | Dr. Eric C. Leuthardt | TEDxGatewayArch
https://youtu.be/UYNVbem-7VY
The capability to "decode the brain" now makes thought-controlled machines a reality. Even more fundamentally theses brain computer interfaces empower the mind to now heal the physical substance of the brain after stroke. Our laboratory has created brain computer interfaces that enable a person with a chronically paralyzed had to recover function by using brain signals from the uninjured side of their brain. With continued practice, while the patient's machine-empowered thoughts enable them to move their paralyzed hand, something extraordinary happens -- the patients begin to recover function.
Not one for idle time, Dr. Leuthardt is an Associate Professor of Neurological Surgery and Biomedical Engineering at Washington University School of Medicine, where he specializes in brain-mapping for patients with brain tumors and epilepsy; Director of Washington University’s Center for Innovation in Neuroscience and Technology, a collaborative collective for developing new technologies to improve neurosurgery; and a published author of the hit psychological thriller RedDevil_4.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at http://ted.com/tedx
