Leading independent provider of neurological physiotherapy & rehabilitation.
We provide a comprehensive neurological physiotherapy service.
Our neurological physiotherapy team treat a wide range of conditions.
Neurological physiotherapy, also called neuro physiotherapy, is a specialist form of physiotherapy aimed at improving the movement and function of those affected by a neurological condition or injury.
Neurological physiotherapy involves the accurate assessment, treatment, management and rehabilitation of these issues.
We help people who experience difficulties with their physical function, often due to a neurological condition.
Common conditions we see, and treat are:
This type of physio can treat a wide variety of patients who have difficulty with their mobility and normal activities of daily life.
These can be the result of traumatic injuries to the head, brain or spinal cord or can be caused by illnesses such as stroke, brain tumours, Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinson’s Disease, Motor Neurone Disease and Cerebral Palsy.
The brain controls our nervous system so any damage to it can lead to problems such as loss of movement, sensation, coordination, balance and memory, along with changes in behaviour and speech.
Our brain has the amazing ability to form new connections during the process of neuroplasticity. This process is what allows us to learn a new skill through experience and practice.
Neuro physiotherapy works by understanding how the brain has been affected and how this relates to the physical symptoms experienced. There is then a comprehensive process that aims to promote brain plasticity through specific exercises, repetition and re-training of normal movement patterns.
For over 30 years we have specialised in treating people with neurological and mobility conditions. We are passionate about helping people recover and maximise their potential following a neurological event or period of reduced mobility, such as after a fall or illness.
Our approach to neuro physiotherapy is not a one-size-fits-all. We believe each patient requires an individually tailored plan of treatment which is based on their personal goals and targets.
For some, neuro physio will help people achieve major goals such as being able to return home and live independently again. For others, their goals may include being able to stand up to access the toilet or even relearning how to walk again.
Overall, our patients come to us because they want to improve their movement, their quality of life and, ultimately, their independence. We take great pleasure in helping our patients achieve their goals whatever they may be.

Very friendly, professional and above all knowledgeable team. I would definitely recommend this team to stroke victims and their families.

Mike sustained a severe head injury which left him with mobility and co-ordination problems. As Mikes wife, it is difficult for me to express how valuable this neuro physiotherapy service is to us both. Mikes quality of life is greatly enhanced by the physios efforts with him each week (thanks for everything).

The physiotherapy sessions my mother has had from Burscough Physiotherapy following a stroke last year have improved her movements beyond anything we could have expected. The care attention and treatment she has received from the physiotherapists dealing with her have been second to none. I would have no hesitation in recommending Burscough Physiotherapy to anyone in need of their services, they are excellent in every way.

I have found all the physiotherapists who come to my home approachable and helpful. They always take the time to listen and advise. Having the same therapists also helps as they have built up a good relationship with my son

May I once again thank you and your physios for all the work put in on my mum and the wonderful improvement made, not just physically but to her mental wellbeing as well. The girls have worked wonders and she and I can not thank you enough.

Kind and caring physiotherapists who give their best to improve the lives of their patients…I am impressed by the encouragement given to P throughout each session and also for the explanation of what the exercises are hoping to achieve.
