Who are we?

Mandy and Amy are sisters and have worked together with a special interest in Neurophysiotherapy since 2002. Prior to this they both gained separate experience in both overseas and local rehabilitation units. Both Mandy and Amy have completed their Masters degrees in Neurophysiotherapy and have attended their Adult Bobath courses which have helped qualify them highly in the special interest of Neurophysiotherapy. Their passion for rehabilitation resulted in the establishment of RehabMatters and they are proud to be a part of this dynamic centre.

NeuroPhysiotherapy at RehabMatters

Physiotherapists with a special interest in NeuroPhysiotherapy have an understanding and in-depth knowledge of the rehabilitation needs of people with neurological conditions and focus their therapy on the restoration of a person’s functional ability following a neurological lesion.

If you've ever been to a musculo-skeletal physiotherapist, you'll be surprised at how different a neuro-physiotherapy session is.

NeuroPhysiotherapy involves improving function, mobility, balance and co-ordination, as well as prescribing individualised exercises aimed at increasing strength and body awareness.

Neurophysiotherapy also makes use of gait and balance re-education equipment specifically designed to assisit even the most weak and severely impaired patient.

RehabMatters is proud to offer leading rehabilitation equipment to assist even the most disabled client to stand/walk and improve their general mobility including the Bio-Step Semi-Recumbent Elliptical Cycle, the Gait Trainer 2 and the Balance System SD (for more information visit http://www.biodex.com).
