Spasticity Management: Botox, not just for wrinkles

Dr. Kenneth Ngo, Brain Injury Program Medical Director talks about the new spasticity management clinic being developed at Brooks Rehabilitation. Spasticity is a condition commonly seen in those who have had a stroke, spinal cord injury, brain injury, or are living with cerebral palsy or multiple sclerosis. Spasticity typically affects the limbs and causes them to be tight. The goal of the spasticity management clinic is to losen the limbs and improve function and quality of life. Treatments include physical therapy, occupational therapy as well as botox or implantable devices. Learn more about the spasticity management clinic at Brooks Rehabilitation.
