Frequently Asked Questions
Clear answers to common questions about neurological rehabilitation, stroke recovery, nerve problems and specialist care.
What does neurological rehabilitation do?
Neurological rehabilitation helps patients regain movement, strength, independence and quality of life after a neurological illness or injury. Dr. Sana Arshad, FCPS in Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation, provides a complete non-surgical approach — from assessment and diagnosis to a personalised rehabilitation plan, long-term support and prevention of complications.
Can function improve after a stroke or spinal injury?
Rehabilitation aims to improve function after a stroke or spinal injury. Progress varies with the condition, its severity, overall health and the rehabilitation plan. Goals may include safer transfers, better mobility and greater independence; a full recovery cannot be guaranteed.
Do I need a referral to see a rehabilitation specialist?
No referral is needed. You can book a consultation with Dr. Sana Arshad directly for a neurological assessment, EMG/NCS testing where needed, and a personalised rehabilitation plan.
When should I see a neurological rehabilitation specialist?
Arrange an assessment after a neurological illness or injury when movement, balance or daily activities remain affected. Sudden new weakness, facial drooping or speech difficulty needs emergency assessment rather than a routine rehabilitation appointment.
Can rehabilitation help my family member live safely at home?
Yes. A core part of care is counselling and training family carers so they can safely support positioning, transfers, bladder/bowel care and daily routines at home. The goal is maximum safe independence — and reduced unnecessary hospitalization.
What tests might be needed?
Most patients need a thorough clinical and functional examination. Where nerves are involved, EMG/NCS (nerve conduction) testing may be arranged to measure nerve function objectively. Imaging and bloods may also be used, co-ordinated with your other specialists.
