motor function recovery

Motor function recovery refers to the process by which the body regains movement and strength after injury or illness, like a stroke or trauma. It involves the brain and nervous system reorganizing and forming new connections—called neuroplasticity—to bypass damaged areas. Rehabilitation exercises help stimulate these pathways, encouraging muscle strength and coordination to improve over time. The extent and speed of recovery vary based on factors such as the severity of injury, age, and therapy received. Overall, it’s a gradual process driven by the brain’s ability to adapt and rebuild crucial nerve pathways that control movement.
