What is Neurorehabilitation?
Neurorehabilitation is a specialised medical process that helps patients recover and restore function after damage to the nervous system – from brain injuries, strokes, spinal cord injuries, or neurosurgical procedures. It is a comprehensive, multidisciplinary approach. At Dashvanth Healthcare Delhi, all patients receive coordinated neurorehabilitation support.

Principles of Effective Recovery
Neuroplasticity – the brain’s ability to reorganise and form new connections – is the foundation of neurorehabilitation. Early initiation, high intensity, task-specific training, and consistency are key to maximising recovery.
