Reclaim Mobility and Independence with Expert Physical Therapy
Damage or conditions impacting the brain and nervous system can lead to various challenges, including reduced sensation, muscle weakness, tightness, balance issues, and cognitive impairments. These difficulties often limit mobility, making tasks like standing, walking, or engaging in community activities more challenging. Such limitations can decrease the quality of life and place added strain on caregivers and family members.
At ASARA Physical Therapy and Balance Clinic, we specialize in helping patients overcome these challenges through comprehensive assessments and personalized treatment plans. Our skilled therapists evaluate functional activities like sitting, standing, transfers, walking, and balance to identify specific problem areas and develop targeted solutions tailored to each individual’s needs.
Advanced Technology for Superior Results
We leverage state-of-the-art tools, including motion sensors for gait analysis, to identify muscle imbalances and joint movement patterns during dynamic walking. These insights, combined with evidence-based outcome measures, enable us to design highly effective treatment plans that address unique challenges and support personal goals.
Innovative Treatment Approaches
Our treatments include advanced methods such as body-weight support systems to promote early weight-bearing, functional electrical stimulation bikes for improved muscle activation, and customized neuro-rehabilitation programs designed to enhance mobility and independence. Every aspect of our care focuses on empowering patients to regain control of their lives and achieve meaningful improvements in function.
Your Partner in Recovery
At ASARA, we are committed to providing cutting-edge care that improves mobility, balance, and overall quality of life. Let us help you or your loved one take the next step toward a more active and independent future.
What is Balance, and Why Does It Matter?
Balance is the body’s ability to stay steady and stable while moving or standing still. It’s what lets you walk on grass, step over a curb, or ride an elevator without thinking twice. For most of us, these actions are automatic and effortless.
But for someone with balance issues, these everyday tasks can feel overwhelming, exhausting, and even dangerous.
How Does Balance Work?
Your ability to balance relies on teamwork between several key systems in your body. These systems work together to gather information, send it to your brain, and help you move safely and smoothly:
Your brain processes all this information in an instant, sending instructions back to your body to help you stay upright and stable.
Why Balance Issues Can Be Life-Changing
When even one part of this intricate system isn’t working properly, it can cause problems. Simple activities like walking on uneven ground or getting out of a chair can become difficult or even risky. Balance issues don’t just affect your mobility—they can impact your confidence, independence, and quality of life.
If you or someone you care about is struggling with balance, understanding how these systems work is the first step toward finding solutions and regaining stability.

Gait analysis in simpler words means assessing the way a person walks or runs.
The human walking motion is also called a gait cycle. It comprises several sub-components of movements that repeat themselves with every stride you take. Our body's joints and muscles move in a controlled, coordinated manner to walk efficiently and with minimal effort.
An abnormal walking pattern can make an individual feel tired, unsteady, or even lead to falling.
An experienced and skilled therapist will observe a patient walk or run and accurately point out the missing components of gait or critical abnormalities in the walking cycle.
Observing the critical abnormalities will help the therapist further investigate the irregularities in joint movement (Range of Motion) or muscle strength that contributes to the faulty walking patterns.
Physical therapists will use this information to design a treatment plan that is very specific to the patient.

We help patients walk by supporting the patient body weight and predictably moving the leg, and guiding the muscles with our hands.
Using hands-on skills to retrain muscles is called Neurodevelopmental Treatment Approach. We utilize our advanced training along with technology to help patients walk.
We show the patient the abnormalities of Gait through video recording and gait analysis.
It helps improve the patients' perception of normalcy. The patient works with the therapist to improve their mechanics for a much efficient walking pattern.

The human brain is so fascinating. The brain has the unique capability to form new synapses or connections, especially in response to learning, experience, or after an injury like a stroke. Repetitions and consistent physical practice through functional training help reorganize the brain and stimulate Neuroplasticity. Watch the video from SENTIS to understand Neuroplasticity.
Do you know that it takes 10,000 repetitions of steps to change a walking pattern? Such high recurrences can only occur with a combination of technology and expertise, such as gait training on a treadmill, consistency of functional movement training at home, with thoughtful home exercises designed to your specific needs.
We strongly believe that recovery happens at home. For this reason, we take caregiver training seriously. We believe in empowering patients and their families. You will learn strategies to implement and mold your brain to build strong permanent connections and ingrained movement patterns with our help.
Physical therapists at Asara Physical Therapy and Balance Clinic have helped children and adults relearn how to stand, walk, climb, run and improve many functional movements with our skilled expertise.
