What is Neurological Physiotherapy
Neurological physiotherapy is specific to treating individuals who suffer from a neurological disorder or disease affecting the central nervous system. These include Alzheimer’s disease, ALS, brain injury, cerebral palsy, Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT), multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, spinal cord injury, and stroke. Patients who suffer with any of the above mentioned condition may often battle neurologic impairments of activities of daily living, ambulation, balance, functional independence, movement, muscle strength and loss of vision. Neurological Physiotherapy can address many of these impairments and aid in restoring and maintaining function, slowing disease progression, and improving quality of life.
How is This Accomplished?
Our Physiotherapists will employ treatment techniques that include: acupuncture (although not all our physiotherapists are qualified to do this), advice on lifestyle and fatigue management, balance and coordination exercises, electrical stimulation, specific exercises to re-activate specific muscle groups, joint mobilizations, soft tissue mobilizations and movement re-education.
How We Can Help
A Physiotherapists treatment plan will target any underlying problem, reduce pain and control symptoms by re-learning or re-establishment of movement patterns that help the patient to function to the maximum of our ability.
