Spasticity Management
Outpatient Therapy Referrals: 706-823-8504
Walton's Spasticity Management program evaluates and treats adolescents and adults with spasticity (high spasticity or hypotonicity/low spasticity) in a comprehensive manner. Issues addressed through outpatient therapy include:
- Positioning
- Serial casting needs
- Modalities or therapy interventions
- Orthotics/splints
- Wheelchair/equipment needs.
Physician services are a vital part of our Spasticity Management program. In conjunction with therapy, our physicians provide medication management (including oral medications and injections) as well as Intrathecal Baclofen Therapy. ITB Therapy is approved for use in patients with spinal or cerebral origin spasticity as a result of cerebral palsy, brain injury, stroke, multiple sclerosis, or spinal cord injury.
