NCS (Neurologic Clinical Specialist)

A NeuroClinical Specialist (NCS) is a highly trained physical therapist who specializes in neurological conditions affecting the brain, spinal cord, and nerves. They assess, develop, and implement personalized treatment plans to improve function, mobility, and quality of life for individuals with neurological disorders such as stroke, multiple sclerosis, or Parkinson’s disease. Their expertise includes managing complex movement problems, coordinating care with other healthcare providers, and educating patients and families. Essentially, an NCS uses advanced knowledge and skills to help people recover, adapt, or optimize their neurological health and independence.
