Physiotherapy and Chiropractic Care for Neuromuscular Disorders
Physiotherapy and chiropractic care both play important, complementary roles in managing neuromuscular disorders, offering non-invasive, holistic approaches to improve function, mobility, and quality of life.
Physiotherapy focuses on restoring movement, strength, and coordination through targeted exercises, manual therapy, and modalities such as electrical stimulation and ultrasound. It is especially beneficial for conditions such as multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, muscular dystrophy, and peripheral neuropathy, helping patients maintain independence and prevent secondary complications like contractures or joint stiffness. Physiotherapists also design customized programs to improve balance, gait, and endurance, which are often compromised in neuromuscular conditions.
