Is All Exercise Equal for Neurological Rehab?

Описание: Welcome to NeuroNotes! A podcast hosted by Kenzo and Sam, two neurological physiotherapists and the brains behind PhysiKits.

Our mission is to make high-quality neurological rehabilitation and science information understandable and accessible to all those driven to learn more about their neurological condition - from brain injuries and stroke, to neurodegenerative conditions like multiple sclerosis and Parkinson's disease.

New episodes coming weekly, so stay-tuned!

Today we talk about exercise, and why we as physios seem to be obsessed with it! We cover the overall health benefits, how it impacts the brain and nervous system physiologically, and how we target different neurological impairments by prescribing specific exercise types.

It isn't all about jogging or weight lifting!
