Sensory Rehabilitation
NeuroPhysio can help you to understand the impact and plan a rehabilitation programme to improve your sensation and movement.
Sensory Rehabilitation
The ability to touch and feel is essential to help us to understand the world and move purposefully and accurately.
If you have suffered a neurological injury or disorder that has resulted in changes to your sensation, NeuroPhysio can help you to understand the impact and plan a rehabilitation programme to improve your sensation and movement.
What is Sensation?
Sensation is fundamental to enable you to move and interact with other people and the environment.
People most often think of sensation as their ability to feel an object, but there are in fact many different aspects and ways it can be affected.
NeuroPhysio frequently help people with sensory issues caused by damage to the nervous system resulting in:
Numbness
Pins & Needles
Dullness
Lack of joint positional awareness
Difficulty feeling of shapes and texture
Changes in temperature recognition
These symptoms go beyond what a person ‘feels’ and can affect how they move including reducing co-ordination or accuracy and resulting in clumsy movements and a loss of dexterity.
Rehabilitating Sensation
Sensory re-education programmes help people with neurological injuries retrain their brains to process sensory information or to adopt new techniques to compensate for their loss.
NeuroPhysio provides a comprehensive assessment of a person’s sensory problems and design effective training programmes to stimulate the brain to rewire.
Whilst NeuroPhysio will generally include sensory retraining as part of any rehabilitation programme, if sensory deficits are having a more profound impact on movement we may recommend an intensive training programme such as SENSe Sensory Rehabilitation.
