Atlanta neurologic physical therapy
What is an NCS physical therapist?
NCS stands for Neurologic Clinical Specialist: a licensed physical therapist who has earned board certification in neurologic physical therapy.
What the credential means
An NCS credential identifies a physical therapist with advanced knowledge and experience in treating conditions that affect the brain, spinal cord, nerves, balance, and movement. It is especially relevant when someone is looking for physical therapy after stroke, brain injury, spinal cord injury, Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis, concussion, or a vestibular disorder.
How to find a specialist in Atlanta
Ask a clinic whether an NCS-certified PT is available for your diagnosis, then confirm the credential through the American Physical Therapy Association directory. The NCS Atlanta home page includes a verified Atlanta clinic list and direct links to the public specialist profiles.
