Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation
A musculoskeletal rehabilitation (rehab) program is a doctor-supervised program designed for people with
impairments or disabilities due to disease, disorders, or injury to the muscles, tendons, ligaments, or
bones. Musculoskeletal rehab programs can often improve the person's ability to function, reduce
symptoms, and improve the person's well-being.
Some of the conditions that may benefit from musculoskeletal rehab may include the following-
- Shoulder pain
- Elbow pain
- Wrist pain
- Hip pain
- Knee pain
- Ankle pain
- Spine pain
Neuro Rehabilitation
Physiotherapy is often used to help recover motor function and movement of joints, muscles and tendons
in individuals who are affected by disability, illness or injury. Keeping the muscles active and the
joints flexible, prevents wasting and deterioration of function, as well as promotes rehabilitation.
Neuro physiotherapy is a specialist branch of physiotherapy dedicated to improving the function of
patients who have suffered physical impairment caused by neurological conditions. Any neurological
condition that affects movement and physical ability can be treated using neuro physiotherapy. Some
common conditions in which this is useful include:
- Stroke
- Traumatic brain injury/head injury
- Spinal cord injury
- Multiple sclerosis (MS)
- Parkinson’s disease
- Bell’s palsy
- Spine pain

Treatment may involve soft tissue massage, mobilization, stretching, specific therapeutic exercises and posture education.. The physiotherapist will inevitably work within the context of the child and his family and have the opportunity to work with the child in a range of situations extending into home, preschool groups, education and leisure activities.
Post Surgical Rehabilitation
Post-surgical rehabilitation may be necessary for a variety of surgical procedures including orthopaedic, cardiac, thoracic, neurological and abdominal surgery. All types of surgery present with several post-operative consequences which can be helped with physiotherapy. Physiotherapy after surgery should begin immediately in a hospital, however, it is important that once you have been discharged you continue physiotherapy to achieve the best possible recovery. Our physiotherapy team will encourage you to carry out a range of exercises to strengthen and mobilize any affected joints and muscles and this will also help to improve circulatory or respiratory problems that may have developed in the hospital.
