Neuromuscular Reeducation

The goal of neuromuscular reeducation activities is to retrain a body part to perform a task that the body part was previously able to accomplish. Pain, inflammation and swelling due to injury, disease or surgery can lead to loss of neuromuscular control and abnormal movement. Neuromuscular re-education consists of manual techniques (i.e.PNF-proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation), activities for balance and core control (i.e Bosu exercises and Therapeutic Ball exercises) and other therapeutic exercises that are designed to re-develop normal, controlled movement patterns. This type of therapy works well for: 

  • Muscle paresis and paralysis
