Einleitung
Among the most frequently occurring neurologic diseases in Europe and North America are multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, cerebrovascular diseases, brain and spinal cord trauma, and chronic headache. These neurologic disorders are also the most relevant for treatment with sport therapy, a motion-therapeutic method that compensates and regenerates disturbed bodily, mental, and social functions; prevents secondary damage; and promotes health-oriented behavior. Sport therapy is rooted in a biopsychological approach to the human organism. The methods of sport and movement therapy are based on medical, exercise, educational, psychological, and sociotherapeutic principles.
