Neurological rehabilitation

Neurological rehabilitation is used to treat diseases, disorders or injuries related to the nervous system. Depending on the severity of the condition, neurological rehabilitation can be done on an inpatient or outpatient basis and is designed to improve brain function and independence.

A neurological event or injury can leave you dependent on others for things you used to do on your own. Neurological rehabilitation (neurorehab) therapy at Parham Doctors’ Hospital, a campus of Henrico Doctors’ Hospital, can help you recover.
