Service Overview
Discover how our specialized neurological physiotherapy aids recovery, restoring movement and independence through tailored treatment plans focused on neuroplasticity.
Regaining Movement and Independence After Neurological Injury
Explore how our tailored neurological physiotherapy addresses conditions such as stroke, Parkinson’s, and fibromyalgia to restore your quality of life.
Stroke Rehabilitation
We design personalized therapy plans that enhance neuroplasticity, helping stroke survivors regain strength, coordination, and balance.
Managing Parkinson’s Disease Symptoms
Our targeted exercises improve mobility and reduce tremors, empowering patients to maintain independence longer.
Fibromyalgia Support and Treatment
Through gentle, customized therapies, we alleviate pain and increase physical function to improve daily living.
Neurological Physiotherapy
When the central nervous system — including the brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nerves — is damaged by illness or injury, it can lead to a range of physical difficulties. These may include loss of coordination, muscle weakness or spasms, tremors, impaired balance, paralysis, or reduced sensation.
Neurological physiotherapy focuses on improving these symptoms through targeted exercises and movement training that help restore function and independence. It is also used to support recovery and rehabilitation following injury or surgery, and to help children achieve key developmental milestones.
How it Works
When parts of the brain or spinal cord are damaged, the nerves that carry electrical signals can become disrupted. However, the brain has an incredible ability known as neuroplasticity — the capacity to form new neural connections through consistent, repetitive physical activity and exercise.
Neurological physiotherapy takes advantage of this natural ability to help retrain the body and restore lost movement patterns.
Conditions Treated
Neurological physiotherapy can help manage a wide range of conditions, including:
- Stroke
- Parkinson’s disease
- Multiple sclerosis (MS)
- Cerebral palsy
- Spinal cord and head injuries
- Peripheral nerve injuries
- Muscular dystrophy
- Myopathy
- Dyspraxia
- Huntington’s disease
- Dementia
- Fibromyalgia
- Developmental delays
- And many other neurological conditions
Benefits of Neurological Physiotherapy
Treatment can greatly improve your ability to carry out daily activities such as walking, climbing stairs, driving, shopping, gardening, or simply changing positions in bed.
Some key benefits include:
- Improved coordination and control of movement
- Increased strength, flexibility, and range of motion
- Reduced muscle stiffness and spasticity
- Better posture and balance, lowering the risk of falls
- Enhanced breathing and reduced risk of chest infections
- Greater confidence, reduced stress and anxiety
- Pain relief and improved overall well-being
What Treatment Involves
Each treatment plan is tailored to your individual needs following a detailed initial assessment. Depending on your symptoms and goals, therapy may include:
- Splinting and positioning: to support limb alignment and prevent joint stiffness
- Stretching and strengthening exercises: performed in bed or while seated
- Breathing and mobility exercises: to reduce risks such as chest infections and DVTs
- Gait and balance training: including practice with walking aids where needed
- Functional movement re-education: helping you sit, stand, and move with greater ease
Together with your physiotherapist, you’ll set short- and long-term goals as part of a structured rehabilitation programme.
Sessions can be provided either at home or in the clinic, depending on your comfort and needs.
