Service portfolio

We offer rehabilitation according to international standards after spine, shoulder, hand, hip, knee, and foot surgery.

According to the medical therapy plan, the team of therapists first offers inpatient and then outpatient treatment after the hospital stay if a medical voucher can be presented.

Conservative treatment of spine pain avoids surgery for more than 80% of all patients. This achievement is a trademark of our therapeutic work. Enhancement of muscle power and coordination is one of the focuses of our treatment concept and is gained by individual exercise therapy, hydrogymnastics, and medical training therapy with sports equipment. We support the patient by providing behavioural therapeutic information and enabling him or her to cope with afflictions through independent activity.

Pain and functional disorders are decrypted by examination procedures, such as manual examination of musculature and joints and movement and functional analyses, and by technical diagnostic procedures, such as electroneurography in cases of neuroparalysis or ultrasonography of vessels in cases of peripheral circulatory disorders. The examinations aid us in determining the most suitable therapy combinations for each individual patient.

Outpatient services:

Our Departmental examinations include medical examinations, consultations in cases of complex pain syndromes, and creation of outpatient rehabilitation programmes. In addition, we offer special examinations, such as nerve conduction studies, electromyography, and preoperative peripheral arterial and venous Doppler and duplex ultrasonography.

The Department offers the following therapy types:

Physiotherapy: With physiotherapy, we focus on treatment of the locomotor system regarding movement and behaviour. With the aid of special manual and other physiotherapeutic techniques, physiotherapists activate self-regulating forces of the organism (e.g., wound healing) and encourage the patients independence. The goal is to reestablish physical health. Physiotherapy can be administered as group therapy or individual therapy.
Occupational therapy: Our occupational therapy service offers self-help training, joint protection instructions, ergonomic advice (individual and group therapy), therapeutic appliances advice and care instructions, hand therapy, splint provision, functional training, a paraffin group, and a preoperative hip group.

Electrotherapy: We offer therapies with galvanisation, impulse galvanisation, frequency modulation, surge current, exponential current, ultrasonics, and medical laser applications. Massage therapy is also offered. Partial massages are administered with the classical technique, in special cases. Manual lymphatic drainage is also available.

Moor: Disposable moor compresses and/or cold packs are applied to treat rising temperature patterns based on medical indications.
Subaqueous applications: Our Department is equipped to provide subaqueous-pressure-stream-massage with the intensity adjusted to the individual patients needs in a warm 35C pool.
