Neuromuscular rehabilitation
Neuromuscular rehabilitation is a specialized area of rehabilitation focused on restoring optimal function to the neuromuscular system, which includes the nerves, muscles, and their interactions. This type of rehabilitation is particularly beneficial for individuals with neurological conditions or injuries that affect movement, coordination, balance, and muscle control.
The goals of neuromuscular rehabilitation may vary depending on the individual’s specific condition and functional limitations, but they often include:
Improving motor function
Neuromuscular rehabilitation aims to enhance voluntary muscle control and coordination, allowing individuals to perform everyday tasks more effectively and independently.
Enhancing balance and proprioception
Weakness in muscles surrounding an injured or affected area is common during rehabilitation. Rehabilitative exercises target specific muscle groups to improve strength, stability, and function.
Restoring mobility and gait
Rehabilitation programs may include gait training and mobility exercises to improve walking patterns and promote safe and efficient movement.
Reducing spasticity and muscle stiffness
Individuals with neurological conditions such as stroke or spinal cord injury may experience muscle spasticity or stiffness, which can impair movement and function. Neuromuscular rehabilitation techniques, such as stretching and therapeutic exercises, can help reduce spasticity and improve muscle flexibility.
Enhancing motor learning and skill acquisition
Neuromuscular rehabilitation often involves repetitive practice of functional tasks and activities to promote motor learning and skill acquisition, helping individuals regain lost abilities or learn compensatory strategies.
Pain management
Rehabilitation interventions may include modalities and techniques aimed at alleviating pain associated with neurological conditions, such as manual therapy, electrotherapy, and relaxation techniques.

Neuromuscular rehabilitation programs are typically tailored to the individual’s specific needs, abilities, and goals. They may include a combination of therapeutic modalities, exercises, manual techniques, assistive devices, and patient education to optimize outcomes and promote long-term success.
Rehabilitative exercises can vary widely depending on the individual's condition, goals, and functional abilities. They may include:
- Therapeutic exercises targeting specific muscle groups or movement patterns
- Balance and proprioception training
- Gait training and mobility exercises
- Functional electrical stimulation (FES)
- Constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT)
- Virtual reality rehabilitation
- Neurodevelopmental treatment (NDT)
- Task-specific training
- Aquatic therapy
Neuromuscular rehabilitation is typically delivered by a multidisciplinary team of healthcare professionals, including physical therapists, occupational therapists, speech-language pathologists, rehabilitation physicians, and neurologists. The collaborative approach ensures that individuals receive comprehensive care addressing their physical, cognitive, and psychosocial needs.

SO helpful friendly and informative……our entire staff from my work visit Kirsten! Highly recommend to anyone….and I also take my special needs adult son…..he is treated with the upmost care 🙂
Maggie A
Dr. Genrich took the time to explain why I was experiencing my symptoms and also showed me stretches to do on my own to help the treatment along and to prevent injuries in the future. She was very personable, pleasant, positive and professional.
Lisa K
Kristin got me from being bed-ridden for over a month to working a physical job, all within just a couple of months. She’ll tell you how to stretch to keep everything aligned properly in the long run. Can’t thank you enough!
Daniel W
Dr. Kirsten truly saved me! I was in so much pain and didn’t know what to do. I came into the clinic nervous and in pain but left a new woman! I recommend her to anyone I meet and is having similar issues.
Cheyenne M
Kirstin Genrich is seriously AMAZING. She always asks/makes sure I’m comfortable before going forward with anything. She’s extremely knowledgeable and you can 100% tell that she is passionate about what she does. Like wow… if I could give more than 5 stars I would.
