Rewiring Movement: The Science of Motor Learning: Bridging Neuroscience and Rehabilitation for Recovery

This comprehensive guide explores the science of motor learning and its critical role in neurorehabilitation. Grounded in dynamic systems theory, it examines how the brain relearns movement after stroke, TBI, and other neurological injuries. Key topics include:Task-oriented approaches that use meaningful activities to drive recoveryConstraint-Induced Movement Therapy (CIMT) to overcome "learned nonuse"Cutting-edge interventions like robotics and virtual realityBilateral training techniques that harness neural plasticityWith evidence-based strategies and clinical case studies, this book equips therapists to optimize rehabilitation outcomes while helping survivors regain functional independence. Essential reading for rehabilitation professionals seeking to translate motor learning principles into effective practice.
