Rehabilitation

 

In an instant, life can go from normal to unimaginable. At the Baylor Institute for Rehabilitation, we know this all too well. Every day we help patients rebuild their lives from the ground up. Our distinctive, healing attitude, our specialized treatment teams, and our high national ranking among rehab centers equip us for the challenge.

BIR specializes in traumatic brain injury, spinal cord injury, stroke and orthopedic rehabilitation. Its researchers are working hard to improve rehabilitation from all sorts of injuries, illnesses and conditions. Current studies are examining: 

  •  How traumatic brain injury recovery may benefit from Human Growth Hormon
  • What role resiliency plays, and how to increase it, in spinal cord injury patients
  •  How a special treadmill system can help stroke patients regain a natural walking gait
