Spasticity rehabilitation

Severe spasticity, a condition in which certain muscles are continuously contracted, can make day-to-day life difficult and exhausting. At Encompass Health, we utilize the latest technologies and treatments, such as intrathecal baclofen therapy, to reduce pain and relieve muscle spasms.

How we can help

The degree of spasticity can vary for each patient. That’s why we begin our approach with a treatment plan specifically designed for each individual. We believe high-quality care should be comprehensive, so we work with patients and their loved ones to educate them on how they can best cope with spasticity.

Why we’re different

Customized care plan

Spasticity can occur after many different conditions or illnesses – stroke, spinal cord injury and multiple sclerosis, to name a few. At Encompass Health, we understand that successful spasticity rehabilitation should be as unique as each of our patients. Each of our patients receives an individual assessment and a personalized plan outlining the steps they need for comprehensive rehabilitation.
