Neurology
Neurological illnesses and their effects range from mild to sometimes life-changing, and can be devastating for the sufferer and their families.
Physiotherapists are trained to help with these conditions whether they are sudden and traumatic i.e. spinal cord injury or gradual and progressive i.e. Parkinson’s Disease.
Physiotherapists provide a full assessment of the patients strength, mobility, balance, gait etc. and prescribe an individualised management programme specific to each individual’s needs.
Conditions include:
- Stroke
- Multiple Sclerosis
- Parkinson’s Disease
- Cerebral Palsy
- Spinal Cord Injuries
- Muscular Dystrophy
Brain Injuries
Physiotherapy management programmes consist of:
- Manual techniques
- Specific muscle strengthening
- Mobility training
- Gait re-education
- Balance training
- Walking aid prescription
- Home visits
- Lifestyle advice
Frequently Asked Questions
Neurological physiotherapy treats conditions affecting the brain, spinal cord and nerves — such as stroke, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease and peripheral nerve injuries — to improve movement, balance and independence.
We use specialised exercises, balance training, mobility retraining and functional rehabilitation to maximise recovery and independence, tailored to your specific condition and goals.
Early intervention often produces the best results. We can provide rehabilitation from the acute stages through to long-term management of chronic neurological conditions.
