Neurological (Neuro) Conditions affect the brain, spinal cord and nerves. They can affect anyone at any age. One in six people in the UK lives with a Neuro Condition. These can be caused by a variety of factors, including genes, the environment, bacterial or viral infections and traumatic injuries or accidents. It’s not always possible to tell what causes a Neuro Condition, although research is ongoing.
A Neuro Condition may often result in some degree of disability. People are likely to have to make big changes to their lifestyles due to the effect of the condition on their physical abilities and their sense of perception, memory, judgement and reasoning. They may become less independent and require more physical and emotional care and support in their daily lives. At the Ryan Neuro Therapy Centre we can help with those changes, using Physiotherapy, tailored exercise programmes and Occupational Therapy to help our members to continue to live active and fulfilling lives.
There are over 600 known Neuro Conditions and this number is increasing all the time as diagnosis improves. Doctors, researchers and clinicians sometimes find it helpful to group neurological conditions together into four main categories:
- Sudden onset
- Intermittent
- Progressive
- Stable with changing needs
The Ryan Neuro Therapy Centre currently specialises in therapies for the following Neuro Conditions:
- Multiple Sclerosis,
- Parkinson's Disease,
- Stroke
- Transverse Myelitis
