Introduction

Welcome to Foley James D MD, where we provide exceptional AFM rehabilitation services in Minnesota. Our dedicated team of medical professionals specializes in offering state-of-the-art treatments for patients suffering from Acute Flaccid Myelitis (AFM). We understand the challenges faced by AFM patients and strive to provide comprehensive care to help them regain their strength and independence.

Understanding AFM

Acute Flaccid Myelitis (AFM) is a rare but serious neurological condition that affects the spinal cord, causing weakness or paralysis in the limbs. It primarily affects children and often follows a respiratory or gastrointestinal infection. AFM requires specialized attention and tailored treatment plans to address the unique needs of each patient.

Comprehensive AFM Rehabilitation

At Foley James D MD, we offer a comprehensive AFM rehabilitation program designed to help patients recover their physical function, improve their quality of life, and restore independence. Our team of experienced healthcare professionals collaborate closely with each patient to develop personalized treatment plans that address their specific needs and goals.

Our Approach

Our AFM rehabilitation program focuses on a multidisciplinary approach, combining various therapies and interventions to maximize recovery potential. We believe in a holistic approach that encompasses physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, and psychological support to ensure comprehensive care for our patients.

Physical Therapy

Our highly skilled physical therapists specialize in creating individualized exercise programs to improve strength, mobility, and coordination. They work closely with patients to enhance motor skills, optimize range of motion, and promote overall physical well-being. Through targeted interventions, our physical therapy sessions aim to improve functional abilities and reduce limitations caused by AFM.

Occupational Therapy

Our occupational therapists focus on enhancing the ability of patients to perform daily activities independently and regain functional independence. They use various techniques and assistive devices to facilitate adaptive skills, improve fine motor skills, and promote self-care abilities. Our occupational therapy sessions aim to enhance patients' quality of life and help them reintegrate into their daily routines.

Speech Therapy

For patients experiencing speech and swallowing difficulties due to AFM, our dedicated speech therapists provide specialized interventions. They incorporate targeted exercises to improve speech articulation, enhance swallowing abilities, and address any communication challenges. Our speech therapy sessions aim to help patients regain clear and effective communication skills.

Psychological Support

We understand the emotional impact that AFM can have on both patients and their families. Our team includes dedicated psychologists who provide valuable psychological support throughout the rehabilitation process. They offer counseling, coping strategies, and emotional guidance to help patients and their families navigate the challenges associated with AFM and maintain a positive outlook towards the recovery journey.
