The Bobath Concept

The Bobath Concept is a neurological therapy approach designed to help people with movement difficulties caused by conditions like stroke or brain injury. It focuses on understanding how the brain controls movement and aims to improve coordination, strength, and function through individualized, hands-on techniques. Therapists use guiding and positioning strategies to promote normal movement patterns and reduce abnormal reflexes. The goal is to enable individuals to regain independence in daily activities by encouraging the brain to reorganize and adapt its control over movement processes.
