🌟 A Neuro Physio’s Guide to spasticity 🌟

Spasticity happens when certain muscles become overactive, stiff, or difficult to control due to changes in the brain or spinal cord.

It’s a common symptom in conditions such as stroke, MS, spinal cord injury, or cerebral palsy, and can make everyday tasks harder.

Physiotherapy input, such as stretching, movement training, and tailored exercise can help to improve comfort, mobility, and independence!

🧠 What is Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS)?

GBS is a rare neurological condition where the body’s immune system mistakenly attacks the peripheral nerves. This can cause symptoms like tingling, muscle weakness, and even temporary paralysis.

Recovery often starts within a few weeks, but the timeline varies. Most people regain the ability to walk within 6 months, and many make a full recovery within a year.

Early intervention with physiotherapy helps improve strength & mobility and supports a smoother rehabilitation process 🌟

🧠 What is Proprioception?

Proprioception, our body’s ’sixth sense’, helps you to know where your limbs are, even without looking 👣

It helps you to balance, move smoothly, and react quickly; all without thinking about it.

The sensory system can be retrained just like muscles can; with the right input, repetition, and challenge ✅
