Neurological
Neurological physiotherapy focuses on movement, balance, strength and independence after a condition affecting the brain, spinal cord or nerves. Progress is measured in function: standing safely, walking further, managing stairs, getting back to daily life.
Conditions we treat
Each of these has its own page explaining what causes it, what you are likely to notice, and how we treat it. If you are not sure which one fits, that is what the assessment is for.
Signs and symptoms
- Weakness or loss of control on one side
- Balance problems, unsteadiness or falls
- Difficulty walking, turning or managing stairs
- Stiffness, tremor or slowed movement
- Numbness or altered sensation in the limbs
How we treat it
- Task-specific movement retraining
- Balance, gait and falls prevention work
- Strength and endurance building
- Home exercise programs and carer education
- NDIS and DVA supported treatment plans
This page is general information, not a diagnosis. Symptoms overlap between conditions, so the right treatment depends on an assessment. If your pain followed a significant injury, is getting worse, or comes with numbness, weakness or unexplained weight loss, please see your GP.
