Our High-Level Neurological Disorders Program

How it Works

The Neurological Rehabilitation Program starts with an initial evaluation to review the patient’s health history followed by a physical exam. During this exam, the physical therapist assesses the patient’s coordination, range of motion, muscle tone, and strength.

A Customized Plan

We developed individualized plans and one-on-one treatments designed for each patient’s unique conditions and goals. Our clinical staff would check to see if the patient is experiencing changes in attention, sensation, and cognition. Your physical therapists also evaluates the patient’s gate and balance, and their ability to transfer from sitting to standing and other routine transitions.

Improving the Outcome

Often physical therapy is prescribed by your Neurologist after a life changing neurological event because of the difference it can make in a patient’s recovery. The fact is physical therapy has being prove to improve balance and stability while lowering the fall rate among those with neurological disorders.
