Tone , Spasticity, Hypertonicity, Stroke Buddies 88

Unlocking Spasticity: Understanding Tone, Reflexes & Relaxation in Stroke Recovery Subscribe to our channel to support us and other stroke survivors In this in-depth roundtable, Ralph Preston hosts a powerful discussion with stroke survivors and neuro experts including Dr. Bruce Hetler, Dr. Tom Haynes, Mitch Raymond (PT & stroke survivor), John Kopka (OT & TBI survivor), and yoga instructor Rachel Jarmos. Together, they break down what tone, spasticity, and hypertonicity really are—why they happen, and how to manage them through therapy, movement, breath, and mindfulness. You’ll learn about techniques like pandiculation, inhibition training, and restorative yoga, plus how stress, breathing, and attention affect the nervous system. This is a must-watch for anyone looking to better understand and manage post-stroke muscle tightness.

Whether it’s yoga, PT, inhibition techniques, or breathwork, the real key is conscious engagement and meaningful practice. When we relax the nervous system, breathe with awareness, and use what we’ve learned intentionally, recovery becomes more than movement—it becomes healing.
