Stroke recovery doesn’t end when formal therapy ends — and survivors need clear, compassionate, practical education to continue healing.
In this episode, stroke recovery specialist and author Tracy L. Markley shares valuable insight into stroke rehabilitation, functional movement, proprioception, balance, gait, and the brain–body connection.
Speaking from years of hands-on experience and from the research that shaped her books, Tracy explains how survivors can continue improving through brain education, movement awareness, and understanding how the body works after a stroke. She also discusses common challenges survivors face, what families often misunderstand, and why self-education is one of the most powerful tools in the recovery journey.
This episode originally aired when Tracy had nine published books — five of them dedicated to stroke recovery — and her work has continued to grow since then. Her message remains the same: your recovery continues, and knowledge is power.
