Conditions
Acquired Brain Injury (ABI) / Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI)
At Physio & Health Matters we strive to help people who have suffered from a brain injury whether it has been acquired or through trauma.
The brain damage is often complex and can impact on all areas of your life. Often ABI and TBI require input from a team of specialist clinicians. Working with an MDT is a key part of holistic care an essential in assisting recovery.
