Neurological Physiotherapy focuses on improving movement, balance, and functional abilities in patients with disorders of the brain, spinal cord, and nervous system. It helps patients regain independence, strength, and confidence through specialized rehabilitation techniques.
Neurological Physiotherapy is a specialized branch of physiotherapy that deals with conditions affecting the nervous system. These conditions often cause weakness, paralysis, loss of balance, poor coordination, and difficulty in performing daily activities. The therapy aims to retrain the nervous system and improve motor control.
