Occupational Therapy

Occupational therapy is a significantly important factor regarding the patient's recovery phase, as it helps him regain the skills that he possessed before his injury or illness, to re-educate himself in performing his daily activities, to find out ways on how to retrieve his deficiencies and how to ergonomically re-organize his private or professional space that he lives in. The aim is to ensure that the patient will be self-employed in basic everyday activities such as dressing, feeding and personal hygiene, and also to improve memory, attention, perception and concentration abilities.

Speech Therapy

Speech therapy provides ingestion problems treatment, speech issues solving, understanding and communication problems solving and hand-writing disfunctions treatments.

The speech therapist assesses any kind of difficulty using specialized techniques, makes the diagnosis and then suggests the best possible treatment method. He re-educates the mental functions of association, memory, attention, speech and ingestion.

Speech therapy will bring positive effect on the patients' overall treatment plan as it will ensure their even more active participation in the effort to restore it.

Hydrotherapy

Hydrotherapy can beneficially result in the rehabilitation of orthopedic, neurological and rheumatic diseases.

The treatment pool is ergonomically designed with adjustable bottom depth levels, equipped with electric lifter, a dual bar, and suitable equipment for in-water exercises.

Invariable water temperature allows the muscles both to relax and strengthen and also helps to make joint pain softer and increase the range of movement without being charged. The tranquillity and relaxation offered by the pool water has impressive effects on the body and soul of the patient.

Physiotherapy

These therapies are covering cases of respiratory, cardiovascular, orthopedic and neurological diseases and disfunctions. Personalized physiotherapy treatment plans, based on deep search and careful assessment of the patients' illness and its potentials, aim at improving their kinetic condition and maximizing their functionality, independence and autonomy.
