Neuro Developmental Therapy (NDT)
Brain and spinal cord injuries can greatly affect your quality of life. These injuries affect mobility, cognitive functions, and even other physical and psychological processes.
The goal of neurological rehabilitation is to reduce pain, address motor dysfunction, promote independence, prevent further complications, and improve overall quality of life.
Neuro-Developmental therapy (NDT) is a holistic and interdisciplinary clinical practice model informed by current and evolving research that emphasizes individualized therapeutic handling based on movement analysis for rehabilitation of individuals with neurological conditions.
It is a hands-on, problem solving approach where the therapist uses his or her hands to provide guidance and optimize function. NDT certified therapists work together with patients, families, caregivers and other healthcare professionals to develop individualized comprehensive treatment plans based on NDT theory and philosophy.
At PVC Physio Village physiotherapy clinic in Brampton and Oakville, we offer NDT by our certified NDT therapist who has over 25 years of experience working with individuals who face troubling neurological conditions.

Neuro-Developmental Therapy (NDT) is effective for various neurological conditions, including stroke, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, balance problems, and a history of falls. It's not limited to traumatic brain injuries or spinal cord injuries. NDT, along with neurokinetic therapy exercises, can help in improving mobility and enhance the quality of life for individuals with these conditions.
Neuro Developmental Therapy (NDT) takes a holistic approach to neurological rehabilitation. While it primarily focuses on physical function and mobility, it indirectly impacts cognitive functions and psychological processes by improving overall well-being and independence.
NDT, or Neuro Developmental Therapy, is a comprehensive approach that combines manual therapy, problem-solving, and tailored exercises. It's particularly effective for addressing neurological conditions like traumatic brain injuries and spinal cord injuries, alongside issues like balance problems and falls. Certified NDT therapists at Physio Village Clinics in Brampton and Oakville provide individualized care to enhance patients' independence and quality of life.
