Neurological rehabilitation is a specialist area of physiotherapy for the treatment of disorders which result from injury to the brain, spinal cord or nerves. These disorders include, but are not limited to

  • Stroke

  • Multiple sclerosis

  • Parkinson’s disease

  • Acquired brain injury

  • Spinal cord injury

  • Ataxia

These conditions can lead to difficulty controlling and moving the body. Everyday activities such as standing and walking can become major challenges. 

At Galway City Physiotherapy we have physiotherapists with years of experience working in neurological rehabilitation. These physiotherapists are trained to assess and treat function, mobility, strength, balance, posture, coordination and gait.

The benefits of physiotherapy include improved

  • Independence

  • Quality of living

  • Function

  • Mobility

  • Balance

  • Walking gait

  • Energy levels, endurance and fitness

Rehabilitation programs are created specific to each person and their individual goals. Our treatments are guided by the latest clinical practice guidelines for neurological rehabilitation, meaning we focus on the treatments that have proven to be the most effective by clinical research.
