Balance and Gait Disorders

Balance and gait disorders refer to difficulties in maintaining stability and walking properly, often caused by neurological conditions such as stroke, multiple sclerosis, or Parkinson's disease. These disorders can lead to unsteadiness, frequent falls, and challenges in mobility. In neurological physical therapy, specialized exercises and techniques are used to help patients improve their balance, coordination, and walking patterns. The goal is to enhance safety, independence, and overall quality of life by retraining the nervous system to better control body movements and maintain stability.
