When a patient suffers a serious injury to their spinal cord or their brain, they can lose movement and feeling in their extremities or even in their speech centers (their mouths and lips). This can lead to a drastic change in their quality of life; it can also lead to the patient wondering if they will be this way for the rest of their lives. Learn how a neuro rehabilitation center helps these patients and others below.
What is a Neuro Rehabilitation Center?
A neuro rehabilitation center is a medical facility that specializes in regaining or maintaining the function, movement, and feeling in one’s extremities when a patient has suffered a traumatic injury to their brain or spinal cord, often resulting in paralysis and impaired movement in their muscles and in their speech centers.
This type of center develops programs and utilizes technology to help these patients regain as much movement and feeling within their extremities as possible so they can regain as much of their quality of life as possible.
What Other Types of Patients Does This Center Serve?
Other patients who greatly benefit from this type of center are those with degenerative neurological conditions such as Parkinson’s disease and multiple sclerosis. Patients with these disorders will have progressive muscle loss that leads to diminished control over their muscles, often leading to them having trouble walking, handling objects, and more.
Moody Neuro provides a neuro rehabilitation center with the resources and technology to help patients from severe injuries and neurological conditions. Learn more about our programs and services at Moodyneuro.org.
