Neurohope

Extended physical rehabilitation and fitness center for people living with paralysis

Recovery from neurologic injury is incredibly slow. Even the most incomplete SCI may take months or years of rehabilitation.

- Insurance does not provide a continuum of care. The injured are often discharged from rehabilitation hospitals weeks after injury, during the critical time they need therapy the most.

- Outpatient visits are few and far between. Recovery requires regular, repetitive access to therapy in order to promote neuroplasticity (the nervous system's attempt to re-wire after injury). The limited number of outpatient therapy visits provided by insurance are insufficient.

- Disabled individuals living with paralysis in Indiana are deprived of the resources they need for health and well-being (to improve circulation, muscle and bone density, pressure sores, and more). NeuroHope vision will provide the resources to maximize recovery for the recently injured, and offer specialized wellness programs for those already living with paralysis.

Carrine’s recovery continues! An UNASSISTED stride across the pool made our day! To fully appreciate her journey, understand where she started:

Five years ago, an elite athlete on the Franklin College basketball team, her life was put on a new path when she was struck by an impaired driver while she was on a motorcycle.

Carrine was not expected to survive the traumatic brain injury she sustained, let alone move, speak, or walk.

Since that day, Carinne, and her faith, family, and army of supporters have persevered through rigorous therapy at multiple facilities - most especially through the help of her trainer Courtney at Compete Training Academy. Her family set up an entire gym in their rural Indiana home , and she started making the trip South to NeuroHope for additional support in 2023.

Her progress continues, thanks to her determination, and all the amazing people in her corner.

If you hear an infectious laugh radiating through the clinic - you know she’s near!

Keep pushing Carinne! You’re not done yet!

shout outs continue! If you’ve ever had a session with Marshall Sparenberg, PTA, you know he’s part coach, part problem-solver, and part comedian when you need one most.

Whether he’s talking golf swings, glute muscles, or the Purdue Boilermakers, his calm energy and sharp eye for movement keep patients motivated and progressing one rep at a time.

Marshall’s journey with NeuroHope started long before most realize — as an undergraduate intern in 2017! It didn’t take long for his passion for neuro rehab to click. After earning his degree in Exercise Science from the University of Indianapolis, he officially joined the team in 2018 and later became a licensed PTA in 2022.
Now he’s one of the most experienced and respected clinicians on our floor, with knowledge that runs deep in everything from biomechanics to patient psychology—and care that runs even deeper.

Marshall believes progress isn’t always a straight line, which is exactly why he stays with each person through every plateau and breakthrough.

When asked about his favorite muscle to train, his answer says it all: the gluteus medius — “the quiet hero” of balance and stability. Just like that muscle, Marshall works behind the scenes making sure every patient has the strength and support they need to keep moving forward.

Marshall embodies what makes NeuroHope special — knowledge, heart, and a relentless belief in the people he helps. He doesn’t need the spotlight to shine, but we’re making sure he knows just how much he means to us. Thank you Marshall!

Spotlight! Quiet strength. Steady encouragement. Thoughtful care. That’s Ali Peters, PT, DPT!

As one of our expert neuro physical therapists, Ali brings a calm confidence to every session — the kind that makes patients feel supported, challenged, and understood. Whether she’s helping a child celebrate a new milestone or guiding an adult through a tough recovery day, Ali has a special way of connecting with each person she works with.

Ali earned her Doctorate of Physical Therapy from Indiana University after completing her Bachelor’s degree in Biology at Valparaiso University. Before joining NeuroHope in 2023, she worked in inpatient rehabilitation, where she discovered her passion for neurologic recovery and helping people rebuild their lives after life-changing injuries and illnesses.

She’s certified in LSVT BIG, a treatment program designed to help individuals with Parkinson’s disease improve movement and function through high-effort, purposeful motion.

“When people walk into NeuroHope,” she says, “I hope they feel encouraged by our team and inspired by all the other clients working hard and typically having fun while doing it!”

Outside the clinic, Ali enjoys walking and jogging along the Monon Trail, rollerblading, baking, and spending time with family, friends, and her sweet cat, Bowie.

We’re so thankful for Ali’s spirit, her quiet determination, and the way she helps every patient believe in what’s possible again!

rolls on - Today we celebrate Brittanie Helgeson PT, DPT! When it comes to care, compassion, and clinical skill - Brittanie has it all. Her patients love her calm energy, her ability to listen, and her constant drive to help them reach their goals.

Brittanie joined the NeuroHope team in 2021, but began her journey with a Bachelor’s degree in Biology before earning her Doctorate of Physical Therapy from Trine University. During graduate school, she discovered her passion for the neurologic population, drawn to the complexity of each case and the incredible people behind them.

She is LSVT certified, a specialized treatment program designed to help individuals with Parkinson’s disease improve movement and function. She continues to expand her knowledge to better serve her patients and is currently in training to become dry needling certified as well.

When she’s not in the clinic, Brittanie enjoys spending time with family and friends, music, reading, and golfing.

We’re grateful for Brittanie’s heart, dedication, and commitment to staying on the cutting edge of neurological recovery..

Thank You Brittanie!
