Conditions Treated with Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES)

The physiotherapists at Manchester Neuro Physio will be able to assess whether FES is suitable for you. FES may be appropriate if you have one of the following conditions:

Stroke
Multiple Sclerosis
Cerebral Palsy
Head injury
Incomplete spinal cord injury
Hereditary spastic paralysis
Other upper motor neurone neurological condition
Orthopaedic condition (muscle inactivity due to non-use)

The above conditions all affect the upper motor neurones.

Conditions affecting the lower motor neurones cannot be treated with FES. These include:

Peripheral nerve injuries (those outside of the spinal cord)
Polio
Motor neurone disease
Guillian-Barre Syndrome

FES cannot be used to treat these conditions but this does not mean that our other neurological physiotherapy cannot be of benefit to you.

To find out more please contact us or arrange a free phone consultation.
