About Nivas Neuro Physio

Physiotherapy is a key treatment approach aimed at restoring motor function and improving the movement of joints, muscles, and tendons in individuals affected by illness, injury or disability. By maintaining muscle activity and joint flexibility, physiotherapy helps prevent muscle atrophy, deterioration of function, and promotes overall rehabilitation.

Neurological physiotherapy, a specialized branch of physiotherapy, focuses on the treatment of individuals with neurological conditions. The effects of these conditions can be profoundly disruptive, impacting not only the patients but also their families and friends. Brain injuries, for instance, can interfere with the transmission of messages between the brain and the rest of the body, leading to abnormal movement patterns, muscle weakness, imbalances, and difficulties in performing daily activities. These conditions may also affect other aspects of bodily function, such as speech, cognition, memory, perception, and behaviour.

Rehabilitation, grounded in evidence-based medicine, aims to help individuals achieve and maintain optimal functioning across physical, intellectual, psychological, and social domains, as defined by the World Health Organization (WHO). It is a crucial tool in minimizing or slowing the disabling effects of chronic health conditions, equipping individuals with self management strategies, and strengthening exercises to enhance recovery.
