What is the classic physical rehabilitation program for patients after neurologic injuries?
Patients with neurologic disease including intervertebral disc disease, fibrocartilaginous embolism, lumbo-sacral instability, Wobbler’s syndrome, and degenerative myelopathy, will benefit from a steady exercise program. This program will include specific strengthening and proprioceptive exercises. Depending on the severity of their symptoms patients may be seen once a month, once a week or, for paralyzed patients, two to four times a day as inpatients.
