Neurological Rehabilitation
Merseyside Health offer rehabilitation services for those with neurological conditions. These are conditions which can affect a person’s central (brain & spinal cord) or peripheral nervous system (nerves extending from the spine to the limbs). Our team has a wide range of experience in both hospital and community based neurological rehabilitation.
Although Physiotherapy is focused on the delivery of exercise and functional rehabilitation programs to support your physical goals. We recognize the wider benefits of social and psychological support in the management of neurological conditions. For this reason, we also offer Rehabilitation Psychology support and home visit rehab services.
Rehabilitation potential
All too often exercise rehab is too short and focused on the early phases of recovery. For some neurological conditions such as stroke, progress may be possible many months or even years after the event. For this reason, we do not assess rehabilitation potential based on time alone. We also recognize that for progressive conditions, the focus may be on maintaining physical and mental health outcomes through supporting exercise and movement.
