Why the Nervous System Matters in Recovery
The nervous system controls movement, speech, memory, and balance. Stroke or Parkinson’s disrupts these signals, making simple tasks more difficult. Therapy retrains the nervous system to form new connections and restore function. This means:
• Improved coordination and balance
• Better communication and swallowing
• Greater independence in daily routines
• Reduced risk of falls or injuries
When patients stay active and engaged, the nervous system adapts more effectively, leading to lasting improvements.
