Functional Neurological Rehabilitation at Home
Understanding Functional Neurological Disorder (FND)
Functional Neurological Disorder (FND) is a disorder in which the brain is unable to send and receive signals correctly even though there is no obvious structural damage. Although the symptoms can be present and can be difficult to manage, conventional tests and scans may not reveal any anomalies. People suffering from FND might experience tremors, weakness and numbness. They may also experience seizures (non-epileptic) and speech problems as well as problems with balance or coordination. FND is complex but treatable–especially with a personalised and supportive rehabilitation plan focused on function and well-being.
Common Challenges with Functional Neurological Disorder
Inconsistent Motor Symptoms
People suffering from FND might experience sudden changes in their ability to move, such as leg weakness, tremors or paralysis – that fluctuate with no distinct pattern.
Gait and Balance Disturbances
Stumbling, stumbling frequently or irregular movements could increase the risk of falling and decrease confidence in your mobility.
Functional Seizures and Blackouts
A few people suffering from FND have non-epileptic seizures as well as moments of inability to respond, which can be disruptive and destabilizing to everyday life.
Pain and Fatigue
Tiredness and chronic pain are often reported, limiting physical activity and impacting well-being on the emotional level.
Cognitive and Emotional Difficulties
Memory problems, difficulty in concentration, and mood disorders like depression or anxiety may interfere in the rehabilitation process.
Misunderstanding and Stigma
FND is often misdiagnosed or misunderstood which can cause frustration and delay in access to appropriate and supportive medical care.
