Paralysis is the loss of muscle function in part of the body due to damage to the brain, spinal cord, or nerves. It may occur following a stroke, spinal cord injury, traumatic brain injury, or certain neurological disorders. Depending on the severity, paralysis can affect movement, balance, coordination, and the ability to perform daily activities independently.
Physiotherapy is a vital part of rehabilitation for individuals with paralysis. Treatment focuses on improving muscle strength, enhancing mobility, preventing complications such as muscle stiffness, and promoting functional recovery. With consistent therapy and personalized rehabilitation programs, many patients can regain movement, improve independence, and enhance their overall quality of life.
