Physiotherapy and motor neurone disease: preserving function for as long as possible

Kinésithérapie et maladie de Charcot : préserver la fonction le plus longtemps possible

In motor neurone disease, physiotherapy aims to preserve comfort, mobility and participation while avoiding excessive fatigue and adapting to changing needs.

Understanding your symptoms

A useful assessment looks beyond pain alone. It considers mobility, breathing, fatigue, positioning, equipment and support for the patient and family. This helps identify what can be managed through rehabilitation and whether further medical assessment is advisable.

How rehabilitation can help

Care may combine education, progressive exercise, mobility or strength work and hands-on techniques when appropriate. The plan is adjusted to your response, your comfort and the activities you want to return to.

When should you seek medical advice?

Seek prompt medical advice for sudden or severe symptoms, major weakness, loss of sensation, unexplained fever, recent significant trauma, or any symptom that feels unusual or is rapidly worsening.
