CONTACT USMultiple Sclerosis Condition
Specialist Neurological Physiotherapy can help address a range of symptoms that may present as a result of Multiple Sclerosis.
Naturally, not everybody with MS will present with the same motor or sensory problems however there are common movement dysfunction problems that affect most people with MS to varying severities.
Neuro Physiotherapy aims to re-educate movement patterns that may have become established due to a particular weakness in a group of muscles or sometimes as a result of muscle spasticity (spasm).
Neuro Physiotherapist’s have specialist skills to identify focal deficits using detailed movement analysis and skilled muscle facilitation to explore muscle length and build postural control. This often leads to improvements in muscle flexibility, stability and balance which can help to make walking more efficient.
This is especially important in progressive conditions such as MS as optimising postural control and stability can keep people moving in more efficient patterns for much longer than without therapy.
Your Neuro Physiotherapist will also be able to offer advice in relation to walking aids, wheelchairs, orthoses and functional electrical stimulation (FES) that may assist your walking and independence.
Many people with MS are affected by fatigue, this is an invisible symptom but often reported by many as their most liming factor. A Neuro Physiotherapist can help develop a graded exercise programme and help teach strategies to manage symptoms of fatigue.

What Our Clients Say
I'm not sure how to put into words what Tees Neuro Physiotherapy have done for our family. My dad started the clinic 9 months ago, after having a life changing brain haemorrhage, it felt like everything had been taken away from us with the future unknown. Starting with the clinic gave us hope for a brighter future. After an amazing 9 months with the most dedicated health professionals I have ever met, Vicky, Rosie and Claire, now have my dad able to use majority function in his hand, he can walk, he now has his driving licence back, but most of all he has his life back and this is thanks to this amazing team.
"It is more than a job to these amazing people, they truly care passionately about their patients. On my dad's darkest days, they were there with support and encouragement that together, they could achieve the goals that were set out. My dad is still attending the clinic and the team have now formed part of our network and we will forever be grateful.
The facilities and the team are second to none and wouldn't look further if you have a family member or friend who requires neurological physiotherapy."

"Victoria and her team are amazing!! Their service isn't a 'one size fits all approach' They have a holistic approach to treatment. Understanding that no two days are the same for a patient with complex needs. They provide a service that is tailored to suit the clients needs and goals. Thinking outside the box. Nothing is too much for them and they're up for any challenge.
A hard working dedicated bunch of clinicians going above and beyond- I don't know what our family would do if we didn't have them!!!"

“Wow where do I start. I met Vicki after being in hospital for a few months. I was still in a powered wheelchair with so much determination to walk again but didn’t know where to start.
Vicki from Tees Neurophysiotherapy has definitely been a big part of my rehabilitation. I’m now walking and even passed my driving test so I have some independence back.
Vicki is extremely talented at what she does. I always feel amazing when I’ve been to Physio, she knows exactly what I need to work on. I was told that I’d never be able to move from the neck down but with the support and knowledge from Tees Neuro Physiotherapy we have proved this to be wrong. I am always welcomed with a smile it’s a wonderful place to visit everyone there is amazing”
