Physiotherapy Treatment for a Peripheral Nerve Injury

The management of a peripheral nerve injury varies depending on the cause, type and degree of the nerve injury. If a nerve is not healing properly surgery may be required to repair the damaged section. Physiotherapy is very important to promote the recovery of peripheral nerve injuries regardless of whether surgery is required. Manchester Neuro Physio provide specialised treatment programmes, functional electrical stimulation and bracing / splinting to;

• maintain range muscle length / joint range of movement
