For most stroke patients, physical therapy is the cornerstone of the rehabilitation process. Often, assistive technology such as a wheelchair and standing frame may be beneficial. Another type of therapy involving relearning daily activities is occupational therapy (OT). OT involves exercise and training to help the stroke patient relearn everyday activities sometimes called the Activities of daily living (ADLs) such as eating, drinking and swallowing, dressing, bathing, cooking, reading and writing, and toileting. Speech and language therapy is appropriate for patients with problems understanding speech or written words, or problems forming speech.

if someone suffers from stroke usually he or she will experience a numbness or even paralized, regardless to the degree of incident. I would go to the therapy in hospitals because those therapist know what to do to help this patient to be able to go back to his/her normal activity. The best thing to do is to go see a doctor and get a physical therapy :p
