Neurological rehabilitation is a specialist area of physio 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 Physio 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 physio 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.
