What You Can Expect

It starts with a thorough evaluation. Your therapist will work with you to create a treatment plan tailored to your needs and goals to help you return to your maximum function for a better quality of life.

Because recovery from a Neuromuscular Condition often requires care and treatment over an extended period of time, we may recommend one of two different outpatient programs to support your ongoing recovery.

More Programs and Services to Help With Your Recovery

Northwestern Medicine offers more services and resources to support your ongoing recovery.

Northwestern Medicine is proud to offer driver rehabilitation services at two of its facilities: Northwestern Medicine Marianjoy Rehabilitation Hospital and The Outpatient Neuro-rehabilitation Program in Crystal Lake. Our registered occupational therapists and certified driver rehabilitation specialists offer a wide variety of services to help people with disabilities gain independence by learning or relearning how to drive.

The Northwestern Medicine Marianjoy Prosthetic and Orthotic Clinic offers custom prosthetic and orthotic devices for adults and children to maximize their functional abilities. Working with a prosthetic and orthotic provider, physiatrists and physical therapists collaborate to achieve the best possible result for each patient.

Many of our Northwestern Medicine outpatient rehabilitation locations can also provide therapy to help you regain mobility and functional capabilities while using a prosthetic or orthotic device.

Spasticity — a condition in which certain muscles are always contracted — can result in reduced motion and limit the ability to perform everyday tasks. Spasticity management, which may include oral medications, injection therapy using BOTOX®, and intrathecal baclofen therapy, is offered through the Northwestern Medicine Regional Medical Group offices at Marianjoy Rehabilitation Hospital.

Experienced therapists at many of our Northwestern Medicine outpatient rehabilitation can also provide therapy to help with stretching, positioning and movement exercises.

Resources for adults, teens and young adults who have neuromuscular conditions are available at Northwestern Medicine. Groups can help you learn about living with an amputation and coping with stress and offer an outlet for socializing.

Clinicians recommend and design custom devices to meet your unique wheelchair and mobility needs. Customized seating and positioning systems (including wheelchairs, standing systems and stroller systems) can help you improve function, posture, mobility and independence.
