Neurology - getting back to an active life
Neurological disorders such as a stroke often lead to a need for long-term care and dependency on behalf of the patient if left untreated. Patients are often “brutally” prevented from living a normal life when suffering a stroke. It is therefore the aim of neurological rehabilitation to enable the patient to regain as much independence as possible. By way of an individual therapy programme neuroplasty, i.e. the ability of the brain to learn and adapt, is effectively used. Patients with chronic neurological disorders, such as Parkinson’s disease and MS, profit from such therapy, as it slows down the progression of the illness and sustains the patients’ ability to sustain daily living skills.
Some of the principal treatments in neurological rehabilitation at Medical Park are:
- Stroke (Phase B, C and D)
- Parkinson’s disease
- Multiple sclerosis (MS)
- Amyasthenia, e.g. myasthenia and neuromuscular disorders
- Nerve tract disorders such as polyneuropathy
- Epilepsy
- Neurological pain syndrome such as
- Injuries to the spinal chord
- Brain injuries such as traumatic brain injury (TBI)
