Neurological Rehabilitation Programs Sydney
We have specialised neurological programs to facilitate the recovery of patients with neurological injury or illness. Our multidisciplinary team has extensive experience with conditions such as stroke, acquired brain injuries, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, spinal cord injury and more.
Our rehabilitation philosophy embraces a multidisciplinary approach which studies have shown achieves the best outcomes in neurological rehabilitation. Upon admission a comprehensive assessment by our team allows us to tailor a program designed to address your specific impairments. Your expectations and aspirations will be integral to the planning process as you work towards recovery and increased independence.
What We Offer
We offer the latest state-of-the-art equipment in neurological rehabilitation.
LiteGait & Ergo trainers
LiteGait and Ergo trainer devices support proper posture and reduces the need to weight bear. This eliminates worries about balance and facilitates the training of coordinated lower extremity movement. It also allows the clinician to manually assist the legs and pelvis to achieve proper gait patterns.
Bioness L300
The Bioness L300 system lifts your foot if you have drop foot, which can occur as a result of diseases of the central nervous system. This improves your gait pattern, making it smoother and safer. It also stimulates the nerves and is done using functional electrical stimulation with small electrical pulses.
Saebo
Saebo is a custom fabricated mechanical orthosis that is designed and fitted to the body to allow support for upper limb retraining including reaching and grasping. Saebo allows patients with very little residual hand function to immediately begin performing activities, thereby forging new pathways in the brain.

“I presented to Metro Rehab at the end of August after a fall. I sustained a small fracture in the cup of the hip which meant I needed rehab in order to walk again. I have cerebral palsy which posed extra challenges to rehabilitation.
The excellent staff and facilities at MetroRehab enabled me to be discharged after a month of intense daily physio and hydrotherapy coupled with frequent monitoring from the occupational therapist.
The two features I really liked were the way in which all the components of the MR operation worked together very collaboratively and the positive atmosphere that pervaded the whole facility. This is a place where the cleaners are appreciated and known by name!”
- Patrick (78)
“The team at MetroRehab are so caring and attentive. They put in so much passion and believe in what they are doing each and every day. If they notice that you have improved even a little bit, they throw a proverbial party and I love that.”
- Joel
