What this service does for you
Many people develop spasticity after a stroke, which is a painful stiffening of muscles in the arm or leg. In this consultation, doctors check whether an injection of botulinum toxin can relieve the cramps. The injections are given precisely using EMG or ultrasound guidance and usually work for a few months. Combined with physiotherapy or occupational therapy, mobility can be noticeably improved. This makes daily care easier and increases the quality of life after a stroke.
