Brain Injury

Having a brain injury may be as a result of a traumatic event such as a car accident or a cardiac arrest and often these incidents come out of the blue and can turn your life upside down. The effects of a brain injury can be wide ranging and often aren’t limited to physical difficulties. As a team we have many years experience working with Brain Injury and can work with you on all aspects of your condition, drawing on a network of other professionals to ensure you get the best advice and support.

 

The brain is complex and manages everything your body does, so no two people with brain injury are the same, having someone who understands how your brain works and the impact this can have is invaluable. Physiotherapy can involve exercise and the use of technology to help manage common problems such as pain, reduced movement, weakness or changes in tone, all of which may add up to a change in your functional ability. A specialist physiotherapist can help to address these and, working with Occupational Therapists, Speech therapists, Consultants and Psychologists we aim to consider the whole picture, not just the physical elements.

"We are a very diverse group with various disabilities, the sessions are geared to improve all of us individually. Adam leads the group with great empathy and understanding of our needs, at the same time as being quite a work out for us it is also an enjoyable experience."
Manager of Gracewell Care Home
"Foundations Physio give people their independence and confidence back. As a carer I see the impact the physio sessions have on the residents. It motivates people to keep moving forward, gives them hope and encourages them to think positively."
Gracewell Carer
"I cannot recommend Foundations Physio highly enough! The team have been visiting residents in our home since June 2014 when we first opened our doors. The difference that they have made, not only to the physical well being but also to the psychological and emotional well being of the residents here is truly outstanding."
Sharon ParkinCare Home Manager
"I can’t tell you how pleased I am to have met Adam. He was there for through some really rough times with helpful advice and support. My MS was really getting me down and I now have some useful aids and a new support group that Adam introduced me to. My family would also like to thank the Foundations Physio team for their encouragement and positivity."
Jackie
"The team have an excellent collaborative demeanour, bringing their encouragement, experience and analysis to bear on every aspect of my rehabilitation process. I wasn’t sure at the beginning what Foundations Physio would bring beyond what my NHS physio was providing, but I’m now convinced my progress has been much quicker thanks to their input."
Neil
"Adam has been my father’s physio for over a year and the care and attention he has shown has been excellent. We were fortunate to meet Adam a couple of years ago through the NHS and have subsequently used Foundations Physio on a private one to one basis; the incredibly high level of care has been absolutely super."
Sharon
"Adam was my Physio whilst I was in a rehabilitation unit and then subsequently when I was at first at home. I could not stand up, let alone walk when he first started helping me. He was very caring, supportive, encouraging and pushed me to do things that I did not really believe that I could do. So now after a further 9 months, I feel that I am really leading a fairly normal life again and am not sure that would have happened without his initial support and care."
Judith
"I used Foundations Physio to help with a mobility issue my Mum had, they were recommended to me from a another resident at the care home, after an initial consultation in which was Mum was fully assessed, Mum then underwent weekly appointments in which great progress was made, Kelly and Ben managed to break the cycle and install confidence in Mum, she is now able to stand without help and is back walking again with her frame. Extremely pleased with the level of service from Foundations Physio."
Mary’s family
"We just wanted to say how wonderfully Amado and the wider Foundations team have been running our classes for People with Parkinson’s. Creating a fun, energetic and inclusive atmosphere for all our members, thank you! "
