A stroke presents sudden cerebrovascular disease caused by vascular disorders, that results in a significant neurological deficit. According to the mechanism of brain damage, two main types of stroke can be distinguished: ischemic, which accounts for 85% of all acute strokes, and hemorrhagic, which accounts for 15% of acute strokes. The most common risk factors for the development of cerebrovascular disease are older age, hypertension, diabetes, heart disease, and carotid artery disease; the symptoms depend on the size of the damage of the affected area and the time elapsed from the appearance of the first symptoms to the diagnosis. Timely recognition and removal of the risk factors, recognition of symptoms, and establishment of a clinical picture and diagnosis can make the treatment more successful. In the neurorehabilitation of patients after a stroke, therapists most often use methods such as Bobath concept, PNF and Brunnstrom which are based on the principles of neuroplasticity. Also, the individual approach to the patient and the education of the patient are of great importance. This paper aims to show the importance of neurorehabilitation as the best form of rehabilitation for a patient's recovery after a stroke.
