Neurological Physiotherapy:
Neurological physiotherapy, also known as neurological rehabilitation, focuses on evaluating and treating conditions affecting the brain and nervous system. Individuals with neurological conditions often encounter challenges related to physical functionality, encompassing muscle strength, range of motion, coordination, sensation, balance, and mobility. This specialized rehabilitation approach employs principles of neuroscience, neuroplasticity, movement science, and exercise therapy to enhance physical function and foster independence.
