The aim of this article is to provide a literature review of current approaches and recommendations for medical rehabilitation in stroke patients, with the goal of achieving the best possible outcomes for their condition and improving their quality of life. Materials and Methods: A targeted review was conducted of articles published in the databases available to us (PubMed, Science Direct, Google Scholar, PEDro, Research Gate) that contain information regarding therapeutic management of stroke and, in particular, interventions aimed at motor recovery and improving quality of life. Included in this literature review were: scientific articles, guidelines on stroke and motor rehabilitation, clinical studies, longitudinal clinical studies, controlled clinical studies, systematic reviews, and meta-analyses published before April 2026, covering a ten-year period. Results: Data showing a trend toward higher patient survival rates following acute stroke were identified. For this reason, existing non-pharmacological approaches to motor recovery should be optimized. The rehabilitation process must begin as early as possible. Motor recovery depends on the establishment of motor control and the neuroplastic processes occurring in brain tissue. Rehabilitation is conducted by a rehabilitation team with the patient’s active participation, while monitoring motor rehabilitation potential. Conclusion: Rehabilitation is an essential component of post-stroke treatment. When timely and adequate medical rehabilitation is provided to stroke patients, there is a significant improvement in their overall condition and motor functions, as well as in their independence, self-care, and quality of life.
