The brain continually changes its structure to meet the demands placed upon it. Cognitive rehabilitation is used to recover lost cognitive skills caused by brain damage. A recreation therapist uses a variety of approaches to promote cognitive abilities. Restoration or Development focuses on recovery of lost skills, the development of skills, or the refinement and maintenance of skills. Compensation focuses on adaptations and modification to compensate for cognitive dysfunction. Changes in the brain can occur over an extended period of time. The potential for further recovery is still there. Contact us to learn more about cognitive retraining and rehabilitation.
