Neurological Rehabilitation

What is Neurological Rehabilitation?

Neurological rehabilitation (or neuro rehab) is the examination and continuing treatment of people who have mobility and functional difficulties as a result of nervous system disorders or injuries.

Neurological rehabilitation is intended to aid in the treatment of people suffering from the nervous system or neurological illnesses. Rehabilitation attempts to enhance a patient's quality of life by increasing function and reducing debilitating symptoms.

The word "neurological rehabilitation" refers to the therapy that people can get after suffering a neurological accident, disease, or being diagnosed with a long-term neurological disease. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), rehabilitation is "a combination of strategies that enable persons who have or are likely to have a disability to attain and sustain maximum functioning in interaction with their surroundings."
