What Is Neurological Rehabilitation?

Neurological rehabilitation supports patients whose movement, balance, coordination or sensation is affected by the brain, spinal cord or nervous system. Repeated, meaningful physiotherapy can encourage adaptation and support recovery.

Treatment can focus on sitting, standing, walking, transfers, posture, arm function and everyday activities. Each rehabilitation plan is tailored to the person’s condition, environment and goals.

How we can help

Your rehabilitation journey

What to expect from neurological physiotherapy

1

Your Initial Assessment

During the initial assessment, an experienced neurophysiotherapist will assess movement, balance, mobility, coordination, posture, confidence, and difficulty with daily tasks. We will also discuss your goals, medical history, existing support and any referral information.

Patients can approach the clinic about a private referral or self-referral. A family member, carer or health professional can assist where required. They don’t need a referral; they can just call us.

2

Your Rehabilitation Plan

Following assessment, your physiotherapist will create an individual rehabilitation programme. Treatment may include task practice, strengthening, balance work, walking and transfer practice, flexibility exercises, positioning, fatigue management, education and advice for patients, families and carers.

High repetition is often important in neurological rehabilitation. The aim is to practise movement safely, improve function and help patients gain as much independence as their condition allows.
