Neuro Rehab
Certainly! Here are 10 points highlighting how physiotherapy can assist with neurorehabilitation:
Individualized Assessment: A comprehensive evaluation to understand the specific neurological condition, the patient’s abilities, and limitations.
Goal-Oriented Treatment: Developing personalized treatment plans with specific functional goals to improve the patient’s quality of life.
Gait Training: Working on improving walking patterns and balance, using various techniques and assistive devices as needed.
Muscle Strengthening: Targeted exercises to strengthen weakened muscles and restore motor control.
Range of Motion Exercises: Implementing stretches and exercises to improve joint mobility and prevent contractures.
Balance and Coordination Training: Focusing on exercises that enhance balance and coordination, reducing the risk of falls.
Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES): Using electrical stimulation to activate muscles and improve motor function.
Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy (CIMT): Encouraging the use of the affected limb to improve its function.
Mirror Therapy: Utilizing mirrors to create an illusion of movement in the affected limb, which can help improve motor control.
Home Exercise Program: Providing patients with a set of exercises and activities they can practice at home to continue their progress outside of therapy sessions.
