Spinal Cord Injury: Helping You Regain Your Mobility
A spinal cord injury can be a life-altering experience that affects not only the individual but also their loved ones. It can cause a range of physical and emotional challenges, including loss of mobility, sensation, and independence. At such a difficult time, it’s essential to receive the right support and care to help you recover and regain your independence.

Relieve pain: Physiotherapy can help relieve pain and discomfort associated with a spinal cord injury. Your physiotherapist will use a range of techniques, including massage and stretches, to help reduce pain and improve your quality of life.
