I have by mistake saved over an existing document in Word. Is there any way to recover the original document? Any help will be greatly appreciated
Thanks.

IF you have the "Always create backup copy" box checked under
Tools>Options>Save AND you have only saved the document once, then you can
use the backup copy.

Or, if you started by opening the document and then changed it AND you have
not yet closed it, use Undo to undo the changes.

Otherwise, you are out of luck.
