Welcome to The Neuro Hub
The Neuro Hub is a unique, specialist rehabilitation clinic/gym.

How does this work?
Research has proven time and again that individualised, targeted rehabilitation at a clinically meaningful intensity can improve functional ability.
Our highly specialised therapists will utilise a combination of “hands on” therapy and technology to address the issues identified in the assessment.
Your progress can be taken into a community setting and we work closely with local facilities to enable integration back to chosen fitness and leisure activities.
Enabling our clients to function in their own homes can be achieved as our therapists work in the community to facilitate activities of daily living that will increase independence.
Baseline ability will be measured and monitored closely throughout the rehabilitation journey to track progress and encourage positivity!
This amounts to enabling our clients to
- Improve their physical skills such as strength, balance and stamina
- Improve physical efficiency and reduce effort during such activities as walking, shopping and engaging in sports
- Improve hand and arm function including shoulder and arm function and enhancing hand and finger dexterity
What rehabilitation programmes are offered by The Neuro Hub
Our programmes look at four key areas of rehabilitation
All our programmes are unique and are built to meet the needs of each client. Depending upon their individual needs, some clients undertaking one programme and others complete all four.
