Neurological Physiotherapy

Physiotherapy

Neurological physiotherapy is a branch of physiotherapy that focuses on treating individuals with disorders of the nervous system, including the brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nerves.

How can we help with Neurological physiotherapy?

  • Conditions treated include stroke, Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis (MS), spinal cord injuries, traumatic brain injuries, and cerebral palsy.
  • Goals: Improve motor control, balance, coordination, posture, and functional independence.
  • Common techniques:
    • Neurodevelopmental therapy
    • Balance and gait training
    • Strengthening and stretching exercises
    • Functional retraining (e.g., walking, sitting, standing)
    • Use of assistive devices

Neurological physiotherapy plays a crucial role in enhancing mobility, reducing complications, and promoting neuroplasticity (the brain's ability to reorganize and adapt).
