In 2022, Sascha Stenslunde faced a significant health challenge. After undergoing brain surgery to remove a tumour, she experienced a stroke that required extensive rehabilitation.
Sascha began her rehabilitation programme at Faircape Health Tokai Estate, where she worked with an interdisciplinary team of doctors, nurses, physiotherapists, and occupational therapists to regain strength, mobility, and independence.
“The early days were not easy. Simple movements felt overwhelming, and progress often came in small, incremental steps,” she recalls.
Her rehabilitation included structured physiotherapy and occupational therapy designed to rebuild functional abilities. Each step forward, from basic movements to more complex tasks, represented an important milestone in her recovery journey.
With consistent support and encouragement from her rehabilitation team, Sascha gradually improved her mobility, strength, and confidence in performing daily activities.
“Each day brought new challenges, but with the guidance of my therapists, I could see how far I had come,” she shares.
Today, Sascha continues to engage in ongoing therapy and has regained significant independence in her daily life. At Faircape Health, we are privileged to support patients like Sascha in their rehabilitation journeys and to help them work toward regaining function, confidence, and quality of life.
