Neurological Disorders

The nervous system is an important network in the body that allows our brain to control our movements. Nerves control movement, balance, speech, swallowing, breathing, as well as memory and executive function. Damage to nervous structures can make it difficult to perform daily tasks and manage cognitive function. Physical Therapy can help by better training the brain and nerves to communicate with our skeletal system. It can be helpful with treating the following neurological conditions:

  • Parkinson’s Disease
  • Post-Stroke
  • Traumatic Brain Injuries
  • Multiple Sclerosis
  • Cerebral Palsy
  • Spinal Cord Injuries
  • Neuropathy

Our clinicians utilize various techniques to help patients recover from a neurological injury. This can include

  • Gait Training
  • Strengthening
  • Balance Training
  • Muscular Retraining
