The Vet Rehab Summit 2026
THE BRAIN
Rethinking Rehabilitation Through the Lens of the Central Nervous System.
14 November 2026
One day. Ten world-leading speakers. Thousands of rehabilitation professionals. One of the most complex systems in rehabilitation – made clinically relevant.
The central nervous system influences far more than neurological rehabilitation.
From movement and motor control… to pain, behaviour, learning, adaptation, and recovery… the CNS sits at the centre of some of the most important conversations in rehabilitation. This year, we move beyond neurological lesions and explore how rehabilitation both influences – and is influenced by – the central nervous system.
