Neurological physiotherapy is a specialised branch of physiotherapy focused on treating individuals who have experienced impairments due to neurological disorders. This practice is dedicated to enhancing and restoring functionality, mobility, and quality of life for those affected by injuries or diseases of the nervous system. At Lume Health, we use a variety of techniques tailored to each individual's needs, including strength and flexibility exercises, balance and coordination training, manual therapy, and motor relearning strategies. The goal is to help patients achieve the highest possible level of independence and manage symptoms effectively in a way that is both empowering and rehabilitative.
For those with neurological conditions, traveling to a clinic can be challenging and risky, especially for those with mobility impairments or those who are prone to seizures or other sudden symptoms. Our home-based therapy eliminates the need for potentially difficult or hazardous commutes. The safe, controlled environment of the home minimizes risks and removes barriers to consistent care, which is crucial for effective treatment and recovery.
Conducting physiotherapy in a patient's home allows therapists to directly observe and assess the patient's interaction with their everyday environment. This enables the therapist to customize interventions and exercises that are directly applicable to the spaces where the patient lives and functions daily. For example, therapists can help patients navigate specific barriers in their homes, practice getting in and out of their own bed or chairs, or manage stairs safely and effectively.
Our home-based therapy inherently involves family members more closely in the therapeutic process, providing them with firsthand knowledge of the patient's routines, challenges, and progress. This inclusion fosters a better understanding among caregivers about how to support their loved one's needs effectively, which can enhance the emotional and practical support available to the patient. It also ensures that therapeutic exercises and strategies are continued effectively between professional visits, contributing significantly to the patient's overall rehabilitation and quality of life.
