This generous donation will help us to fund over six months’ worth of physiotherapy sessions for someone with a neuromuscular condition, or one session of physiotherapy for sixteen of our service users.
Our physiotherapy service provides ongoing treatment for adults and young people with neuromuscular conditions where the NHS does not, which we provide free of charge. All treatments are individually tailored to each of our service users, making use of the available muscle power to maintain flexibility and joint range, via acupuncture, hydrotherapy, mobility maintenance, soft tissue therapies, and standing treatments.
Physio is crucial in maintaining muscle strength and muscle tone for longer, it helps with pain management, enables people to stay in work longer, to exercise safely and, therefore, live healthier and fitter lives.
The benefits to that person or persons are impossible to put into words, as these physio sessions will enable them to keep doing the things they love for as long as possible, things that many people will take for granted, like going out with friends, walking the dog, and going shopping independently.
