Cognitive rehabilitation is an emerging approach in physiotherapy that integrates strategies designed to address both physical and cognitive impairments simultaneously, offering a holistic solution for patients recovering from various conditions, including stroke, Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI), and neurodegenerative diseases. The integration of cognitive and physical rehabilitation is gaining traction due to its ability to provide more comprehensive care and facilitate quicker, more effective recovery. Many individuals suffering from neurological conditions experience not only physical challenges, such as muscle weakness, balance issues, and limited mobility, but also cognitive deficits, such as memory problems, attention deficits, and impaired executive function. These cognitive impairments can severely impact the individual's ability to perform daily tasks, adhere to rehabilitation programs, and maintain a positive outlook during recovery. Cognitive rehabilitation in physiotherapy, therefore, offers an innovative and integrated approach that targets both aspects of recoveryphysical and mental enhancing overall rehabilitation outcomes and improving quality of life.
