Rameetse Physio - Services

Neurological rehabilitation is a type of physical therapy that is designed to help individuals who have been affected by a neurological condition or injury. Neurological conditions can include conditions such as stroke, traumatic brain injury, spinal cord injury, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, and others.

These conditions can lead to a range of impairments such as weakness, loss of coordination, balance problems, and difficulty with activities of daily living.

‍

Rameetse Physio can provide a comprehensive approach to neurological rehabilitation, which may include:

Assessment and diagnosis: A physical therapist will perform a thorough examination to identify the specific impairments and underlying causes.
Treatment and management: This may include a variety of techniques such as task-specific training, exercises, neuromuscular re-education, balance and coordination training, and gait training.
Pain management: Physical therapists may use a variety of techniques to reduce pain and inflammation, such as ultrasound, electrical stimulation, ice and heat therapy, and dry needling.
Rehabilitation and recovery: This includes developing and progressing an individualized rehabilitation program to help the patient regain strength, coordination, balance, and function.
Prevention and education: Physical therapists will also educate patients on how to prevent future injuries and manage their condition through self-care and lifestyle changes.

It is important to note that neurological rehabilitation should be individualized and tailored to the specific needs and goals of each patient. It is also important to note that a physiotherapist will refer to other medical professionals if necessary.

Neurological rehabilitation may require a team-based approach with other healthcare professionals such as Occupational Therapists, Speech Therapists, and Neuropsychologists to achieve the best possible outcome.
