How is Neurological Physiotherapy different?

Neurological Physiotherapy differs from regular Physiotherapy in that it specifically focuses on the rehabilitation and management of neurological conditions, such as stroke, Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis, or traumatic brain injuries. Unlike traditional physiotherapy, which generally addresses musculoskeletal injuries or post-surgical recovery, neurological physiotherapy requires a deeper understanding of how the nervous system impacts movement, balance, coordination, and sensory function. Physio Right have Physiotherapists with extensive experience within the neurological physiotherapy field and understand the unique challenges that arise from conditions affecting the brain and spinal cord. Treatment plans often involve a combination of manual therapy, targeted exercises and strategies to improve mobility, prevent complications, and enhance overall quality of life.

 

Physio Right also have Physiotherapists who are highly experience and trained in treating BPPV and other forms of Vertigo.

As a home visit Physiotherapy service focussed on neurological conditions, our approach is tailored to the individual’s home environment, ensuring that therapy is as functional and as relevant as possible. This setting allows the therapist to work closely with people in their natural surroundings, addressing real-life challenges such as navigating stairs, managing household tasks, or adapting to assistive devices. Home visits also provide a more personalised and comfortable experience, which can be crucial for individuals with neurological impairments who may feel overwhelmed in clinical settings. The therapist can assess the space for any potential hazards and offer recommendations for safety modifications while also empowering the individual with strategies for independence and daily functional movements, making therapy more practical and sustainable over time.
