What is neurological therapy?

When injury or illness affects the brain, spine or nerves, neurological therapy includes physical and occupational therapy to help you regain function and stay independent.

Who can benefit and how?

Injuries or conditions affecting the nervous system can cause problems with movement, speaking, swallowing and thinking. Neurological therapy can help anyone suffering from the symptoms of:

Degenerative conditions (such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease)
Genetic diseases
Infections
Injury
Seizure disorders
Stroke

Bioness? L300 Foot Drop System

When brain, nervous system or spinal cord injury or illness changes your ability to walk, the Bioness® L300 Foot Drop System can help. This technology uses functional electrical stimulation to send movement signals that the brain would typically send.

The wireless system senses when your foot is on or off the ground. The unit sends electronic signals to tell your muscles and nerves to lift your foot, helping you walk more naturally. Our specialists adjust the sequencing of the electrical impulses based on your individual needs.

Using the L300 system, you can significantly enhance your range of motion and muscle strength. The device's electrical stimulation also promotes improved blood flow, increases flexibility, prevents muscle atrophy and helps retrain your muscles for better function and recovery.

Cognitive therapy

Cognitive therapy focuses on improving cognitive functions such as memory, attention and problem-solving. Our personalized approach includes evaluations, tailored therapy plans and coping strategies to help patients regain mental and physical independence while managing emotional challenges.

Family education

Support at home is important to your neuro-rehabilitation program. Our specialists offer advice and training for caregivers and family members on:

Changes to improve safety at home
Coping strategies to prevent burnout
Exercises to support your therapies
Pain management
Nutrition and wellness

Occupational therapy

Our occupational therapists use techniques designed to help you live independently and take part in activities. We develop care plans based on your specific needs. We work with you on social skills, and on building skills for daily living, including bathing, cooking, dressing and using the toilet. We can also help you learn to communicate effectively, regain handwriting skills and use adaptive equipment, such as a wheelchair.

Physical therapy

Our physical therapists develop specific exercises that help with movement problems after injury or due to conditions affecting the nervous system. These exercises help you to build strength and balance, improve movement and flexibility and manage pain.

MusicGlove therapy

We use the MusicGlove therapy device to improve hand and eye coordination and build fine motor skills (small muscle coordination). The glove uses interactive games to strengthen hand function and improve your ability to feed yourself, get dressed and write.

Speech therapy

Speech therapy focuses on improving communication, cognitive-linguistic abilities, and swallowing function affected by neurological conditions. We develop individualized plans for each patient to help them regain independence, enhance their quality of life and better connect with others.
