The key advantages of consulting with a neurological physiotherapist is that we work in this area on a daily basis, have a strong interest and extra training in helping people with these conditions. Advanced Neuro Rehab are leaders in this field, providing specific services, formal education and training for health professionals and engaging in clinical research and advocacy for our patients.
Rehabilitation is all about reaching your potential to maximise participation in life. Everyone has a different situation, so neurological physiotherapy treatment will depend on your preferences and your individual goals and needs.
Vestibular Rehabilitation
Vestibular rehabilitation is an evidence-based approach to managing dizziness, vertigo, motion sensitivity, balance and postural control issues that occur due to vestibular dysfunction. Jk provides digital rehabilitation methods as an alternative to traditional therapy to treat vestibular rehabilitation.
Stroke
A stroke is a medical emergency. It is a damage to the brain from interruption of its blood supply. Symptoms of stroke include trouble in walking, speaking and understanding, as well as paralysis or numbness of the face, arm or leg.
Bell’s Palsy
Bell’s palsy is the loss of movement on one side of the face due to weakness or paralysis when the facial nerve becomes inflamed or is damaged. Neurological physiotherapy can help facilitate the recovery of the facial muscles.
Spinal Cord Injury
Spinal cord injury can result from either traumatic or non-traumatic changes such as tumour, infarct (lack of blood supply), infection or severe structural changes around the spinal canal.. Incomplete means there is either some preserved sensation or movement in the lower parts of the body.
Parkinson’s Disease
Parkinson’s disease is a disorder of the central nervous system that affects movement, often including tremors. Neurological Physiotherapy at JK can assist with movement based training to assist some of the movement planning difficulties associated with Parkinson’s disease.
Ataxia
Ataxia is a movement disorder causing problems with the coordination of muscle movement. Neurological Physiotherapy can help with progressive strengthening, improving balance and mobility.
Brain Injury
Brain dysfunction caused by an outside force, usually a violent blow to the head. In Jk we aim at helping patients recover from traumatic brain injuries. We help you face new challenges with unflinching hope and consistent progress. Consistency and perfection is what we thrive to attain.
Neuropathy
Neuropathy is when nerve damage leads to pain, weakness, sensory impairments such as numbness or tingling in one or more parts of the body.Experts at JK, provide best treatment to treat Neuropathy.
Cerebral Palsy
Cerebral Palsy (CP)is a birth related non-progressive movement based disorder. The type of motor disorders that a person with CP will have, are dependent on the areas of the brain that are affected.
Hereditary Spastic Paraparesis
Hereditary Spastic Paraparesis (HSP) is a group of inherited, degenerative neurological disorders that affect the upper motor neurons. Our physiotherapists at JK can help guide you through the management of your HSP. Education and advocacy are two important parts of the physiotherapist’s role.
Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV)
Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) is the most common cause of vertigo. Vertigo is a symptom where someone experiences an illusion of movement, often but not always experienced as spinning.Neurological or Vestibular Physiotherapists.
Functional Neurological Disorders
Functional Neurological Disorder (FND) is a common condition of abnormal nervous system function which can lead to tremor or paralysis, sensory or visual changes, speech changes, cognitive changes or seizures.Our Neurological physiotherapists support you through individualised rehabilitation and recovery pathways.
Cervical Dizziness
Cervical Dizziness or cervical vertigo is a type of dizziness you may experience with associated neck pain, caused by a possible dysfunction of your cervical spine (neck). We thoroughly assess you and develop an individualised program with you to reduce your symptoms and restore function so you can return to doing the things you enjoy.
Gullien Barrier Syndrome
Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) is a rare neurological disorder in which the body’s immune system mistakenly attacks part of its peripheral nervous system. We start a specific physical rehabilitation regime as early as possible in order to prevent complications and maximise the speed of your recovery.
Maniere’s Disease
Ménière’s Disease is a disorder of the inner ear. Symptoms that are experienced are caused by an abnormal buildup of fluid inside the inner ear disrupting the inner ear’s usual functions. Neurological Physiotherapists at JK are ready to help you through this process.
Motor Neuron Disease
Motor Neurone Disease (MND) is the name given to the group of diseases in which the motor neurones degenerate and die.Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), Progressive Muscular Atrophy (PMA), Progressive Bulbar Palsy (PBP) and Primary Lateral Sclerosis (PLS) are all subtypes of motor neurone disease.
Multiple Sclerosis
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic, inflammatory condition that affects your brain and spinal cord of the Central Nervous System (CNS). We have extensive experience in treatment, education and research regarding neurological rehabilitation in Multiple Sclerosis.
Muscular Dystrophy
Myotonic Dystrophy (MD) is the most common adult form of muscular dystrophy that affects both males and females. We have many years experience in supporting people with Muscular Dystrophy and can provide advice and education to help you be as independent as possible.
