## Resource

Former Christchurch mayor Garry Moore’s inspiring stroke recovery journey unfolds as he recounts waking up paralyzed on the left side of his body—his wife’s quick action saved critical time. After months of grueling rehab and relentless repetition, Moore now moves at about three out of five function—and remembers the emotional breakthrough when his thumb moved after nearly 2,000 reps. His story, spotlighted by Stroke Aotearoa and Physiotherapy New Zealand ahead of World Physiotherapy Day, underscores how physiotherapy isn’t just for recovery—it’s key to preventing strokes through managing risk factors like high blood pressure and inactivity. Moore credits his progress to unwavering support, shared determination with fellow survivors, and the power of consistent movement.
