Physiotherapy can help with the following:
- Improving muscle control and strength
- Improving balance
- Reducing unwanted muscle contraction/spasms
- Where able, improve walking ability
- Improving function within the home and reducing the risk of falling
- Increasing the sense of well being and an improvement in mood
A wide range of physiotherapeutic approaches are used including exercise, 'hands on' facilitation, PNF, balance
re-education,muscle stretches, massage and electrical stimulation.
After an assessment of your current function, realistic goals will be discussed
and a treament plan formulated.
This may range from a course of intensive rehabilitation, to a monthly session to maintain physical
ability. The main aim is to maximise functional ability within the limits of your condition.
The treatment of non-neurological conditions, including general rehabilitation after a hospital stay, may
also be offered.
