Further Details

Neural Pathways offers an integrated rehabilitation service geared toward identifying the rehabilitation potential and working to achieve progress in the community. Our therapy services can also be used separatley, perhaps alongside those from other providers including the NHS. We work into own homes and care facilities.

We specialise in tailoring later stage (often 2 years or more after injury) rehabilitation around individual aspirations and lifestyles with a flexible and innovative approach which achieves excellent results.

Our aim is to create sustainable change, thereby increasing independence in all areas possible and reducing dependence on others for support where possible.
