What Are Neurological Disorders?
Neurological disorders are conditions that affect the brain, spinal cord, or nerves, leading to a range of symptoms that can impact movement, coordination, and overall function. These disorders can result from injury, genetics, infections, or diseases like stroke, Parkinson's disease, and multiple sclerosis. At UMG Physical Therapy in Columbia, MD, we specialize in physical therapy for neurological disorders, helping patients manage these conditions and improve their quality of life through targeted treatments.
How Are Neurological Disorders Treated?
Treatment for neurological disorders often involves a combination of medication, lifestyle changes, and rehabilitation therapies. One of the most effective treatments is physical therapy, which focuses on restoring movement and function. Neurological physical therapy techniques, including balance exercises, strength training, and coordination tasks, are specifically designed to address the symptoms of each disorder. For patients with functional neurological disorders, physical therapy helps retrain the body to respond correctly to signals from the nervous system, promoting better movement and coordination.
What Are the Symptoms of Neurological Disorders?
The symptoms of neurological disorders vary, depending on the specific condition but can often include:
- Muscle weakness
- Difficulty with coordination
- Balance issues
- Numbness or tingling in the limbs
- Tremors
- Difficulty speaking
- Memory problems
Physical therapy for neurological disorders addresses these symptoms, helping patients regain strength, improve mobility, and manage any pain or discomfort they may experience.
UMG Physical Therapy Reviews
A work injury led me to searching for a quality physical therapy location near me. I decided to go to this newly opened PT clinic and had a great experience. Clean/new facility with a friendly staff. I saw Kevin and Jeff throughout my multiple visits and received great care from both. They got me back to normal quicker than expected. I will certainly be back if I have any future PT needs.
I had the privilege of receiving care at Jeff following my shoulder surgery, and I cannot recommend him enough. From the very first appointment, he made me feel welcomed, comfortable, and confident in the recovery process. Jeff is not only highly skilled and knowledgeable, but he also took the time to tailor my rehabilitation program specifically to my needs. He listened attentively to my concerns and worked with me to create a treatment plan that addressed my goals while also ensuring my progress was steady and safe. Jeff’s professionalism and genuine care were evident throughout my recovery journey. He went above and beyond to ensure I understood every aspect of my treatment and recovery, and I felt empowered every step of the way. Thanks to Jeff’s expertise and personalized approach, I’ve made a full recovery and feel stronger and more confident in my shoulder than before surgery. I’m incredibly grateful for his exceptional care, and I would highly recommend Jeff to anyone in need of physical therapy. His dedication to his patients is truly unmatched.
Jeff is an amazing therapist, he treats every single one of his patients like family. He listens to and respects his patients and goes out of his way to make sure they are getting the best care. He makes the recovery process fun! I would absolutely recommend Jeff to anyone needing physical therapy, and have personally referred my family members to him for physical therapy services.
Great and friendly staff. Jeff is very personable and easy to get along with, but also very professional. He really does a good job making the environment comfortable, even when you’re in pain and feeling uncomfortable. Very knowledgeable, just know you are in good hands!
Jeff is an amazing therapist! He’s very knowledgeable and great at what he does. His wonderful personality is an added bonus. He takes the time to listen to your concerns and explains things so they are easy to understand. Jeff is the key to getting back to yourself and being pain free!
