Neurological Physiotherapy

Home > Neurological Physiotherapy

Damage to central nervous system, including brain and spinal cord, means that the messages from brain are not reaching the affected parts of body. This can result in loss of movement and sensation, uncoordinated movement, weak and floppy muscles, spasm and tremor. Neurological Physiotherapy is able to kick-start the message pathways that the brain is struggling to use, to make new pathways through repetitive actions and exercises. There by it can improve symptoms such as, difficulties with loss of balance, loss of hand and arm function, or leg and foot function, walking, spasticity and pain.

.

In our Neuro department physiotherapists provide advice on active participation in rehabilitation , promoting an active lifestyle to help all individuals to improve and maintain their quality of life..
