Orthopedics
The healing process of the body is extremely effective when the human factor and modern technologies go hand in hand.
Orthopedic Rehabilitation
Orthopedic rehabilitation offers a holistic therapeutic program to patients with musculoskeletal problems. The goal is to improve and restore mobility and stability, as well as work capacity.
When does orthopedic rehabilitation make sense?
Orthopedic rehabilitation is the right measure for acute symptoms or chronic disease processes. Whether and when you need rehabilitation with an orthopedic focus does not necessarily depend on the clinical picture but, above all, on the course of symptoms and their prognosis. As a rule, orthopedic rehabilitation makes sense if you need medium- or long-term support for your movements and body posture.
First and foremost, this rehabilitation is for patients who have previously undergone surgery. This typically includes knee surgeries (e.g., ACL tear or knee replacement due to knee osteoarthritis), hip replacement, shoulder surgery, spinal interventions, intervertebral disc surgery, and post-amputation rehabilitation. Additionally, orthopedic rehabilitation services are recommended if patients suffer or have suffered from joint pain or issues with intervertebral discs. Moreover, orthopedic rehabilitation is a reasonable measure for conditions such as osteoporosis, scoliosis, osteoarthritis, or rheumatism.
Goals and Process of Orthopedic Rehabilitation
The ultimate and general goal is to improve the ability to move and maintain proper body posture, as well as to improve the quality of life in daily activities. Depending on your condition, your complaints may be completely alleviated, or you will be encouraged to improve your quality of life despite the complaints and maintain your autonomy for as long as possible.
