Physical Management for Neurological Conditions comprehensively covers the essentials of neurorehabilitation starting with thirteen guiding principles, and a new chapter on clinical reasoning and assessment. It discusses the physical management of common neurological conditions such as stroke, traumatic brain injury, spinal cord injury, multiple sclerosis and Parkinson's followed by less common conditions such as inherited neurological conditions, motor neuron disease, polyneuropathies and muscle disorders. Produced by a team of international editors and experts, this fifth edition is the most up-to-date evidence-based textbook available for undergraduate students and qualified health professionals alike, focusing on selecting appropriate evidence-based tools rather than subscribing to any specific treatment approaches. It is a core physiotherapy textbook designed to provide students with everything they need to pass the neurological component of their degree.

New content on assessment, clinical reasoning, technology-based rehabilitation, and complex case management including disorders of consciousness and adults with cerebral palsy Full update of the evidence-base within each chapter, including reference to the increased use of remote delivery of services and challenges accelerated by the Covid-19 pandemic New international authors
