Neurofunctional Therapy Applications involve therapeutic techniques that address the nervous system's role in movement, pain, and overall function. This approach is particularly beneficial for patients with neurological conditions like stroke, traumatic brain injury, or multiple sclerosis. Techniques used include sensory integration exercises, neuromuscular re-education, and motor control training, which help improve coordination and reduce neurogenic pain. Advanced technologies like transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and functional electrical stimulation (FES) are sometimes used to enhance brain-muscle communication. By targeting the underlying neurological pathways, Neurofunctional Therapy aims to restore or compensate for lost functions, helping patients achieve better mobility, coordination, and quality of life. These therapies are essential for promoting long-term recovery in individuals with nervous system impairments.
