CPT 97112 means “neuromuscular reeducation of movement, balance, coordination, kinesthetic sense, posture, and/or proprioception for sitting and/or standing activities.” Like therapeutic activity, therapeutic procedures also apply to one or multiple body parts and require direct contact with the proper provider1.
How does Bobath therapy work?
The basis of the Bobath concept lies in handling patients so that the physiotherapist helps to facilitate movement by lengthening short muscles, mobilising or moving tight joints, strengthening weak muscles and helping to keep their bodies in better alignment.
What is abnormal synergy?
Abnormal synergy is a motor impairment in patients after stroke [8, 9]. Some patients lose independent control of selected muscle groups, resulting in coupled joint movements that are often inappropriate for the desired task. These coupled movements are known as abnormal synergy.
Why does flexor synergy happen?
Although flexion synergy patterns after stroke can be frustrating to deal with, they are actually a sign of improvement. Synergistic movements result from multiple muscle contractions that are triggered at once. For example, if you try to move your shoulder, your elbow might contract.
