Leading independent provider of neurological physiotherapy & rehabilitation.
We provide a comprehensive neurological physiotherapy service.
Our neurological physiotherapy team treat a wide range of conditions.
There are two main types of head injury or brain injury we see here at Burscough Neuro Physiotherapy Rehabilitation Centre.
One is known as traumatic brain injury (TBI) which is an injury to the brain caused by trauma to the head (head injury). There can be many causes, including road traffic accidents, assaults, falls and other accidents at home or work.
The other is known as acquired brain injury which covers all cases of brain injury occurring after birth. The term includes traumatic brain injury as well as conditions such as brain tumour, stroke, brain haemorrhage, and encephalitis.
Both are very traumatic and can have a massive impact, not only on the patient’s lives but also on their family and friends.
Head and brain injuries can leave people with significant physical, cognitive and behavioural problems and they often need considerable help and support to regain independence and improve their quality of life.
The brain controls all of our functions so people who suffer an injury to the brain can face many physical and cognitive problems. These may include:
Due to neuroplasticity – the brain has the ability to reorganise itself by forming new neural connections helped by targeted physiotherapy. With the right input and experiences, the brain has an incredible ability to rewire new connections following injury which can greatly help recovery.
Everyone who has suffered a head or brain injury has different medical and physiotherapy needs. During our initial assessment, we will carry out a full individual assessment looking at all aspects of the brain injury and its effects on daily life.
Our specialist neuro physiotherapists aim to:
It’s important that rehabilitation and, in particular, neuro physiotherapy should begin as soon as possible to maximise recovery after a head or brain injury.
At Burscough Neuro Physiotherapy we have been treating people who have suffered head and brain injuries for more than 30 years. We strongly believe that the vast majority of individuals following a brain injury can continue to make improvements for many months and years following the initial injury.
If you or a loved one has suffered a head and brain injury and want to explore how neuro physiotherapy can help, then please give our friendly reception team a call.

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).
Mrs M, Mikes wife, about Mike aged 52
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.
