The Guillain Barré Syndrome It is a condition in which the immune system attacks the nerves. The disease can be caused by an acute bacterial or viral infection.
Special blood treatments (plasma exchange and immunoglobulin therapy) may relieve symptoms.
Physiotherapy is essential to achieve optimal patient rehabilitation and reach a greater degree of autonomy to carry out activities of daily living, which is the final objective of the recovery phase.
This is a disease in which the immune system breaks down the protective covering of the nerves.
In Multiple Sclerosis, nerve damage disrupts communication between the brain and body.
Physical therapy and medications that suppress the immune system can relieve symptoms and slow the progression of the disease.
The disease of Parkinson is a progressive disease of the nervous system that affects movement. Symptoms begin gradually.
Sometimes it begins with a barely noticeable tremor in just one hand. Tremors are common, although the disease also often causes stiffness or decreased movement.
To control it, people with Parkinson's need physical therapy, which is adapted to their needs depending on the progression of the disease.
HEMIPLEGIA is paralysis of one side of the body caused by a brain or spinal cord injury.
A Stroke occurs when blood flow to a part of the brain is interrupted by the presence of a blood vessel that is blocked or broken. Brain cells that do not receive a constant supply of oxygenated blood can die, causing permanent damage to the brain. Its consequence is Hemiplegia.
Rehabilitation helps stroke survivors relearn skills that are lost when part of the brain is damaged. For example, these skills may include coordinating leg movements in order to walk.
