Summary
Overall, physiotherapy plays an important role in the treatment of spasticity. Since the problems on which spasticity is based are usually muscular in nature, targeted physical training and relaxation exercises can achieve good results in physiotherapeutic treatment. A training plan that is individually tailored to the needs of each patient helps to achieve set goals and offers the patient the opportunity to continue to apply the exercises learned outside of therapy and thus to actively do something about their spasticity. The therapist decides which method of treatment is most suitable, depending on the individual case, in consultation with the doctor and patient.
