A true paradigm shift is occurring in neurology, moving away from the belief that damage to the central nervous system is irreparable. Historically, it was thought that once development was complete, the ability to regenerate axons and dendrites was lost, leading to a fixed and immutable state in the adult brain. This perspective was encapsulated by Cajal in 1928, who asserted that while everything could die, nothing could regenerate. However, this notion was challenged by Otfried Foerster, a prominent professor of neurology and neurosurgery, who emphasized the significance of therapeutic exercises in rehabilitation. In his 100-page article published in the Handbuch der Neurologie in 1936, Foerster argued that most motor disturbances resulting from nervous system lesions could be compensated through the organism's inherent ability to adapt and utilize remaining undamaged parts of the nervous system. His insights resonate with contemporary views on rehabilitation, highlighting the potential for recovery and the body's capacity to reorganize and compensate after injury. This evolving understanding underscores the importance of therapeutic interventions in facilitating recovery and improving outcomes for individuals with neurological impairments.
