Brain injury rehabilitation services

If you or a loved one is recovering from a brain injury, you may benefit from these services:

• physical therapy uses exercise, heat, electrical stimulation and other methods to help people with brain injury improve their ability to move, function and heal.
• occupational therapy helps people recovering from brain injury learn new ways to handle daily activities and develop "skills for the job of living."
• speech therapy can help with communication and thinking problems. For example, while recovering from a brain injury you may have difficulty understanding language (aphasia) or difficulty swallowing (dysphagia).

Courage Kenny Rehabilitation Institute offers a number of other related services to help you in your recovery. Your therapy coordinator will be able to suggest which are right for you. Some of these include:

• aquatic therapy
• driver assessment and training
• balance retraining and vestibular rehabilitation 
• partial weight bearing gait therapy
