Exercise is key to improving and maintaining function.

Rope Neuro Rehabilitation has extensive experience providing evidence-based rehabilitation for people living with Parkinson’s. The purpose of physiotherapy in Parkinson’s is to maximise functional ability and minimise secondary complications through movement rehabilitation, supported by education and a whole-person approach.

Atypical Parkinsonism

Our team also has strong experience working with people living with atypical parkinsonism, including conditions such as Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP), Multiple System Atrophy (MSA), and Corticobasal Degeneration (CBD).

These conditions often present with greater complexity and require a more tailored and responsive rehabilitation approach. We focus on early identification of functional challenges, targeted movement strategies, and proactive management of changes over time.

Rehabilitation is centred around maintaining mobility and independence for as long as possible, supporting safe movement, and working closely with family and support networks to adapt as needs change.
