It is usually difficult to recover from 11 years of hemiplegia at age 60, and rehabilitation can be attempted under a doctor’s supervision. Rehabilitation methods include upper limb training, lower limb training, activities of daily living training, speech therapy, cognitive function training, and psychotherapy.
