A Neuroplastic Approach to PT

Alzheimer’s disease can affect not only a person’s memory but also their physical body. Physical therapy for Alzheimer’s disease can address physical limitations as well as provide extra neurological benefits. Exercise boosts brain-derived neurotrophic factors (BDNF), which help the brain to produce more dopamine cells and promote neural connectivity. Add in the benefits of dietary changes and patients with Alzheimer’s may be able to retain more memories and functions.

Our approach is holistic and focuses on you as a person, not merely a diagnosis. Our team can isolate and diagnosis the specific movement issues that are involved. We work with your family members, care givers, and nurse to help you or your loved one get the treatment they need. Our treatments will focus on walking, transferring, balancing, resistance training, and functional tasks to push neuroplasticity. Our team has also taken courses in Lee Silverman Parkinson’s BIG and integrates large, powerful movements within our training. We focus on big steps, big movements, and challenging power and agility movements in a safe and fun way. We also emphasize recovery using manual therapy, pain and neuroscience, nutrition, and continued life-long exercise and physical activity.

We specialize in treating neurologic conditions like Alzheimer’s so that you can move better and do the things you love. After our initial exam we will create a customized rehabilitation program with a focus on your goals. Our continuation program is likely the best solution for most our clients with Alzheimer’s. Our PT solutions are unique to you!
