How is treatment different from standard physiotherapy?

While traditional physiotherapy often focuses on muscles, joints, and injuries, neurological physiotherapy takes a more specialised approach. It works with how the nervous system communicates with the body and helps retrain movement, posture, and balance through targeted, repetitive activity—often using principles of neuroplasticity (the brain’s ability to adapt and rewire itself).

What can I expect at my first appointment?

Your first session will involve a detailed assessment. We’ll:

Talk through your medical history, current symptoms, and goals
Assess how you move—looking at things like balance, coordination, walking, and strength
Begin some gentle treatment or movement work
Discuss a tailored plan, including clinic sessions and advice for at home

There’s no need to prepare anything specific—just wear comfortable clothing and bring any relevant medical notes or reports.

Do you offer home visits?

No, Unfortunately we are unable to offer home visits at the moment. Sessions are available at our Braithwell clinic only. We have disable parking close to the clinic.

Will I need to do exercises at home?

Yes—home-based exercises are often an important part of neurological rehabilitation. We’ll create a clear, manageable plan to support your progress between sessions. This may include simple movements, posture work, or stretches. We’re also on hand to adapt the plan as your needs change.

How many sessions will I need?

This really depends on your condition and goals. Some people benefit from a short, focused programme, while others find longer-term support more helpful. We’ll review your progress regularly and always work with you to ensure your care feels right for you.

Can neurological physiotherapy help with long-term conditions?

Absolutely. While some neurological conditions are progressive, physiotherapy can still make a meaningful difference—by helping to maintain mobility, manage symptoms, reduce pain, and prevent secondary issues. We aim to improve your quality of life, whatever your diagnosis.

Do I need a referral?

No referral is necessary. You’re welcome to contact us directly to book an appointment or ask any questions. If you have a referral letter from your GP or consultant, you’re welcome to bring it along.

Why's is Neurological Physiotherapy more expensive than standard Physiotherapy?

Our Neurological Physiotherapy sessions are extended to 60 and 45 minutes for initial and follow-up sessions respectively. We aim to deliver as much value from our specialist sessions as possible, with our experience showing that these slightly longer sessions yield much better results for the specific conditions treated.

How do I book an appointment?

You can book online or call us directly to book your initial consultation. We’ll talk you through the next steps and find a time that suits you.
