🔆Understanding Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS)🔆
Guillain-Barré Syndrome is a rare condition where the body’s immune system attacks the nerves. It often starts with tingling or weakness in the legs and can progress quickly, sometimes leading to difficulty walking, using the arms, or even breathing in severe cases.
💪 Recovery is possible — but it takes time, support, and the right care team. This is where physical therapy (PT) and occupational therapy (OT) play a crucial role:
✅ Physical Therapy helps rebuild strength, balance, and mobility. PT focuses on safe exercises to restore movement, reduce fatigue, and retrain the body to walk, stand, and move with confidence.
✅ Occupational Therapy supports independence in daily activities. OT addresses fine motor skills, coordination, and energy conservation strategies so clients can safely return to dressing, cooking, working, and enjoying life again.
At INSPIRE Physical Therapy & Wellness, our team works 1:1 with clients at home or in our studio to guide them through recovery—step by step, at their own pace.
🌿 Progress may be slow, but every milestone matters. With the right support, many individuals regain their independence and return to the activities they love.
