Aus dem Lot – Pusher-Symptomatik

Wer mit Patienten mit Pusher-Symptomatik arbeitet, weiß, wie kräftezehrend die Mobilisation in der Bewegungs- therapie sein kann – für Patient und Therapeut. Einen Goldstandard in der Behandlung gibt es bislang nicht. Zuerst sollte die Pusher-Symptomatik behandelt werden, bevor man andere Ziele der senso- motorischen Rehabilitation wie das Stehen und Gehen anvisiert.
