After paralysis, structured neuro-rehabilitation gives the best chance of regaining movement, independence and quality of life. APARC Health & Motion provides specialist paralysis rehabilitation across 12+ centres in Delhi NCR, Gurugram and Pune, including a dedicated neuro-rehabilitation facility (ACNR Pitampura) offering inpatient residential care with 24-hour nursing.
Understanding paralysis and recovery potential
Paralysis – a loss of muscle function, sometimes with loss of sensation – can follow stroke, spinal cord injury, brain injury or certain nerve conditions. Recovery depends on the cause, severity and how early rehabilitation begins, but the nervous system has a real capacity to adapt and relearn (neuroplasticity). Consistent, intensive, task-specific rehabilitation harnesses this to rebuild movement and function. Even where full recovery is not possible, rehabilitation maximises independence and prevents complications.
Causes of paralysis we help with
- Stroke – weakness or paralysis on one side of the body. See our stroke rehabilitation programme.
- Spinal cord injury – partial or complete loss of movement and sensation below the level of injury.
- Traumatic brain injury – movement and coordination problems following head injury.
- Neurological conditions – such as Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS), multiple sclerosis and others affecting movement.
- Facial and nerve palsies – including facial paralysis.
What paralysis rehabilitation at APARC involves
Every programme begins with a detailed neurological assessment and clear, realistic goals. Your plan may include:
- Gait training and robotic gait training – repetitive, supported walking practice to relearn standing and walking.
- Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) – stimulating weak or paralysed muscles to assist movement and support recovery.
- Task-specific movement retraining – practising the real activities of daily life to rebuild function.
- Strengthening and range-of-motion work – to restore power and prevent stiffness and contractures.
- Balance, transfers and mobility training – for safe, independent movement.
- Spasticity management – positioning, stretching and movement strategies coordinated with medical care.
- Caregiver and family training – so safe handling and exercises continue at home.
Inpatient, daycare and home options
- ACNR Pitampura – dedicated neuro-rehabilitation centre: inpatient residential rehabilitation with 24-hour nursing and an intensive multidisciplinary schedule, plus daycare and outpatient neuro programmes.
- Outpatient care at 12+ centres across Delhi NCR, Gurugram and Pune.
- Home rehabilitation – structured neuro-physiotherapy at home for those who cannot yet travel.
Why early rehabilitation matters
As with stroke, earlier structured rehabilitation is generally associated with better functional outcomes. Beginning therapy as soon as it is medically safe helps prevent complications – such as stiffness, pressure areas and muscle wasting – and makes the most of the nervous system’s early recovery. It is never too late to benefit, though: meaningful gains are possible even long after the initial event.
What to expect at your first assessment
Your physiotherapist assesses movement, strength, sensation, balance and daily function, reviews your medical history and any scans, discusses realistic goals with you and your family, and explains a rehabilitation plan – including intensity, setting (inpatient, outpatient or home) and how progress will be measured.
Frequently asked questions about paralysis rehabilitation
Can paralysis be cured with physiotherapy?
Recovery depends on the cause and severity. Many people regain significant movement and independence with intensive rehabilitation, particularly when it starts early; where full recovery is not possible, rehabilitation maximises function and prevents complications. Your physiotherapist will give you an honest, individualised assessment.
How soon should paralysis rehabilitation start?
As soon as your medical team confirms it is safe – often within days. Early, structured rehabilitation is associated with better outcomes.
Do you offer inpatient (residential) rehabilitation?
Yes. ACNR Pitampura provides residential inpatient neuro-rehabilitation with 24-hour nursing and an intensive therapy schedule, alongside daycare options.
What technology do you use for paralysis rehabilitation?
Our network offers robotic gait training and Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) among other neuro-rehabilitation approaches, chosen to suit each person’s condition and goals.
Can paralysis rehabilitation be done at home?
Yes. APARC provides structured home-based neuro-physiotherapy across Delhi NCR, Gurugram and Pune, often as a bridge to or continuation of centre-based care.
