Physical Management for Neurological Conditions (Physiotherapy Essentials)

Physical Management for Neurological Conditions provides comprehensive coverage of neurorehabilitation, starting with 13 guiding principles and a new chapter on clinical reasoning and assessment. This fifth edition is an evidence-based textbook that focuses on selecting appropriate tools rather than specific treatment approaches.

It covers the physical management of common neurological conditions such as stroke, traumatic brain injury, spinal cord injury, multiple sclerosis, and Parkinson's disease, as well as less common conditions like inherited neurological disorders and motor neuron disease. The book is designed for undergraduate students and qualified health professionals, with a focus on providing comprehensive information on optimal physical management within movement limitations.

Featuring international case studies and new content on assessment, clinical reasoning, technology-based rehabilitation, and complex case management, this updated edition includes reference to the increased use of remote delivery of services and challenges accelerated by the Covid-19 pandemic. It is a core physiotherapy textbook that provides everything students need to pass the neurological component of their degree.
