Comprehensive Spinal Cord Injury Rehabilitation
Rehabilitation of Spinal Cord Injuries
A spinal cord injury can suddenly change how you move, feel and live. At Rehabana Neuro Rehab Center in Kolkata, we offer spinal cord injury rehabilitation for people with spinal cord injuries that focuses on rehabilitation, function and dignity, not just survival.
Our goal is simple: a comprehensive spinal cord rehab plan that supports spinal cord injury recovery at every stage – from the first weeks following spinal cord injury to long-term life after spinal cord injury.
Spinal Cord Injuries and the Rehabilitation Process
When spinal cord injuries occur due to accidents, falls, disease, or surgery, they cause damage to the spinal cord and disrupt the nerve pathways between the brain and the rest of the body. This interruption can significantly impact movement, sensation, coordination, and other essential bodily functions. Whether the condition is acute, subacute, chronic, or related to older spinal trauma, a structured rehabilitation process plays a crucial role in helping individuals gradually regain strength, functional skills, and confidence. At Rehabana, we support patients with spinal cord injuries and their families by setting realistic rehabilitation goals and guiding them carefully through every stage of recovery. This can affect:
Rehabana’s approach to spinal cord injury is based on physical medicine and rehabilitation principles and current rehabilitation research (including guidance similar to what you find in the journal of physiotherapy or international spinal cord guidelines). We look at:
The type of injury – traumatic spinal cord injury vs non-traumatic
The injury level and level of the injury – for example cervical spinal cord injury, thoracic or lumbar
Whether the injury is complete or incomplete – complete injuries, incomplete injuries and incomplete spinal cord injury
Key components of spinal cord injury rehab at Rehabana include:
Physical Therapy
Focuses on improving muscle strength, balance, coordination, and the ability to sit or stand safely.
Occupational Therapy
Helps individuals relearn daily activities such as bathing, dressing, transfers, and wheelchair mobility to regain independence.
Chest and Breathing Exercises
Essential for patients with cervical spine injuries or upper spinal cord lesions to improve lung capacity and respiratory function.
Spinal Cord Injury Physiotherapy
Includes gait training, transfer techniques, and exercises to enhance overall physical movement and functional ability.
Spasticity and Pain Management
Targets muscle stiffness and chronic pain through therapeutic techniques and structured rehabilitation programs.
Emotional Support and Life Planning
Provides psychological support, patient and family education, and guidance to adapt confidently to life after spinal cord injury.
Comprehensive Care for Post-Acute Spinal Cord Injury
SCI Rehabilitation: Management of Spinal Cord Injury
Acute spinal cord injury treatment and surgery usually happen in a hospital or injury center. After that phase, management of spinal cord injury and management and rehabilitation are about:
Preventing complications associated with spinal cord damage
Targeted Physiotherapy for Spinal Cord Injury Recovery
Physiotherapy Management & Rehabilitation After a Spinal Cord Injury
For some spinal cord injuries, we use advanced technologies such as body-weight supported gait training and spinal cord stimulation–based approaches, where appropriate, to enhance functional recovery. Physiotherapy is a core part of spinal cord injury rehabilitation, aimed at improving mobility and independence. At Rehabana, physiotherapy treatment focuses on:
Bed mobility, rolling and safe transfers for patients with spinal cord injuries
Sitting balance and trunk control for people with a spinal cord injury
Standing training and walking practice if injury is complete or incomplete allows it
