Disabilities Treated

The Gymnasium deals with a wide range of patients, young and old, with many different pathologies, often with combinations of pathologies.

The gym offers remedial therapy for a range of disabilities which include Spinal Injury, Paraplegia, Amputations and Stroke victims, which make up the majority of cases, as well as disabilities resulting from conditions such as Parkinson’s disease, Multiple Sclerosis and Poliomyelitis.

Basic Cardiac Rehabilitation as well as the continued rehabilitation of Hip and Knee Replacements after surgery also fall within the treatment parameters of the gym. Conditions such as Osteoporosis and Chronic Arthritis may cause various disabilities which are also treated where appropriate.
