White House Clinic's Neurological Physiotherapy Team
Molly Sandhu leads our team of Clinical Specialist Neuro-physios. They are all highly skilled clinicians and dedicated to providing a holistic approach to treatment to maximise the potential benefits of treatment. With over 40 years experience between them in treating patients with neurological conditions, they are experts in analysing normal and abnormal movements and providing a comprehensive rehabilitation and treatment programme for people living with chronic neurological conditions.
What does Neurological Physiotherapy involve?
Neurological physiotherapy involves the treatment of people with movement and function disorders that have originated from damage to your nervous system, including your brain and spinal cord. These conditions can result in symptoms including muscle weakness, poor balance and coordination, uncontrolled muscle spasm and tremors, loss of function and decreased sensation.
What are the aims of Neurological Physiotherapy?
Neurological conditions and injuries can be devastating to both the person and their families. At the White House Clinic, neurological physiotherapy aims to increase the quality of life for people with neurological conditions through physical means, maximising recovery and potential for rehabilitation, and, in long-term conditions, to slow down any physical deterioration.
Neurological physiotherapists have an in-depth knowledge of the body’s neural networks and how motor control and motor learning can aid recovery and promote neuroplasticity through re-wiring of the nervous system.
White House Clinic's bespoke approach to Neurological Physiotherapy
Every person with a neurological condition presents differently. Neurological physiotherapy treatment will vary depending on your condition and will be focused on your specific symptoms, needs and goals. An initial assessment will identify any problems caused by your neurological condition and a structured rehabilitation programme will be developed suited to your needs including short and long-term treatment goals, which will be set between you and your physiotherapist.
White House Clinic’s Paediatric Neurological Physiotherapy offering
Our Neurological Physiotherapy offering also includes a specialist service for Paediatrics. This specialist arm of the Neurological Physiotherapy service can help children suffering from Neurological and Neurodevelopmental conditions including Cerebral Palsy, Developmental Delay, Neuromuscular conditions, and coordination difficulties. This aspect of the service is very bespoke, and the treatment provided is individual to every child’s differing needs.
For more information about Neurological Physiotherapy at the White House Clinic, or to book an initial assessment give us a call.
