Association of Physiotherapists in Neurology ACPIN is professional network of the Chartered Society of Physiotherapy in the UK.

It is concerned with all aspects of physiotherapy related to the needs of neurologically impaired adults and their relatives and carers.

Rehabilitation doesn’t happen in isolation.

For many people living with neurological conditions, partners, parents, family members and carers are an important part of everyday life — and potentially an important part of rehabilitation too.

But how do we involve relatives without taking away independence?

How do we help them know when to support, when to encourage and when to step back?

Our upcoming webinar, Maximising Relative Involvement in Neurological Physiotherapy, explores how clinicians can develop meaningful, collaborative relationships with patients and their support networks.

From communication and goal setting to supporting practice beyond the therapy session — discover practical approaches you can take into clinical practice.

Could better relative involvement change the rehabilitation experience?

Join us online to explore the possibilities.

Ever heard a patient say: “I can’t do it”?

Do we step in - or create an opportunity for them to work it out?

Maximising involvement in neurological physiotherapy goes beyond simply encouraging patients to participate. It’s about creating the right opportunities for autonomy, problem-solving, meaningful challenge and active engagement.

Join our upcoming online webinar to explore practical strategies for maximising involvement and consider how small changes in our approach can make a meaningful difference to rehabilitation.
Want to rethink your approach to “I can’t”?

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us for our Resistance Training & Neurorehabilitation event! 💪🧠

It was fantastic to bring together clinicians and professionals for an engaging, practical session exploring how resistance training can support rehabilitation and improve outcomes for people living with neurological conditions.

Thank you to our speakers, attendees and everyone who contributed to the conversations, questions and shared expertise throughout the day.

We hope you left feeling inspired, informed and ready to take resistance training into your practice.

Thank you for being part of it — we’ll see you at the next one!

🦴 If your bones could talk… would they be part of your rehab conversation?

We often think about strength, balance, mobility and function in neurorehabilitation — but bone health deserves a place on the list too.

Reduced mobility and weight-bearing activity can affect bone health, while falls can increase the risk of fractures. This makes considering osteoporosis risk an important part of holistic, individualised rehabilitation.

Resistance training, weight-bearing activity, maintaining mobility and falls prevention strategies can all help support bone health and reduce fracture risk when appropriately prescribed.

Because rehabilitation isn’t just about how we move today — it’s about supporting health and function for the future too.

🦴 Think strength. Think movement. Think bone health.

How do you incorporate bone health into your rehabilitation practice?

Ever thought about how much your brain does before you even move?

Tying your shoelaces. Catching a ball. Pouring a drink.

For many of us, these movements happen almost automatically. But for someone with dyspraxia, everyday tasks can require much more conscious planning, coordination, timing and processing.

What looks simple from the outside can involve a whole lot of thinking on the inside.

🧠 Plan. Process. Coordinate. Move. Adapt.

Dyspraxia isn’t about being lazy, careless or “just clumsy”. It’s about how the brain plans and coordinates movement and processes information.

This Dyspraxia Awareness Week, let’s look beyond the movement and understand what’s happening behind it.

Different doesn’t mean less capable.

How confident are you in managing Huntington’s disease in clinical practice?

Huntington’s disease presents unique and complex challenges for neurophysiotherapists. Understanding the condition is one thing — knowing how to adapt your assessment, treatment and rehabilitation approach is another.

Join our upcoming webinar, Huntington’s Disease: A Neurophysiotherapy Approach, and develop your knowledge, clinical reasoning and confidence in supporting people living with Huntington’s disease.

What you’ll gain:
→ A deeper understanding of Huntington’s disease
→ Practical insight into neurophysiotherapy management
→ Strategies to support movement, function and independence
→ Knowledge you can take directly into clinical practice

Dyspraxia is more than being “a bit clumsy”


Dyspraxia can affect the way someone plans, processes and coordinates movement — and it can show up differently from person to person.

From balance and coordination to fine motor skills, organisation and everyday activities, the impact can be physical, cognitive and emotional.

And because dyspraxia isn’t always visible, understanding matters.

Neurophysiotherapy can help people build confidence, develop movement strategies and work towards the things that matter most to them. 💜

This , let’s move beyond assumptions and start better conversations.

Movement looks different for everyone.

Today is World Cerebral Palsy Day — a day to raise awareness, challenge assumptions and celebrate the people living with cerebral palsy.

Cerebral palsy is more than movement. It can influence strength, coordination, communication, fatigue, pain, independence and so much more.

And importantly, no two people with CP are the same.

Neurophysiotherapy is about more than improving movement. It’s about understanding the individual, their goals and what matters to them — supporting people to participate, build confidence and live life on their own terms.

Different movement. Different journeys. Same right to be seen, heard and included.

What does inclusive movement mean to you? 👇
