Why Physiotherapy After a Traumatic Brain Injury Is Essential – And Often Overlooked

Sep 15

2 min read



“Physiotherapy helped me to get my life back on track.”


This isn’t just a line from a testimonial. It’s the reality for many people who’ve had a traumatic brain injury (TBI) – and received the right kind of physiotherapy support.

At Ricardo Physiotherapy, we specialise in helping people move from simply surviving to meaningfully recovering – safely, at home.

What Happens After a TBI?

A brain injury doesn’t just affect memory or speech. It often causes muscle weakness, poor coordination, balance issues and reduced mobility. Unfortunately, after the NHS input ends, many are left without continued, personalised rehabilitation.

This is where regular home-based physiotherapy becomes more than helpful – it becomes vital.

How Physiotherapy Helps

We focus on:

  • Motor recovery – Strengthening muscles and restoring movement patterns

  • Balance and fall prevention – Reducing risk and restoring confidence

  • Overall health and fitness – Preventing decline and encouraging safe activity

  • Neurological stimulation – Supporting the brain’s natural ability to adapt and recover

  • Emotional wellbeing – Creating structure, hope and motivation through goal-based rehab

For the Families and Carers

If you're supporting a parent or loved one after a brain injury, it’s easy to assume that decline is inevitable – especially if NHS services have finished.

But with regular physiotherapy, routine returns, confidence improves and your loved one can continue to progress.

“Since getting Mum additional care, we’ve seen a noticeable improvement.”
