METHOD
Treatment
Every patient is examined by our doctors upon arrival; rehabilitation period and types of procedures are chosen individually for each patient. Each treatment program consists of about 100 procedures during the stay (about 10 a day).
Therapy is concluded with another medical examination after which the patient receives a discharge report and further treatment recommendations.
Our clinic is supplied with modern medical equipment. Each therapy is carried out according to a complex rehabilitation program based on treatments whose sequence ensures better efficacy.
CRIOTHERAPY

MASSAGE
Massage has been used as a therapy since the ancient times. Its relaxing, winding down and pain relieving effect lowers skin and muscle tension and keeps proper tonicity (depending on approach and its intensity). It also enables better blood flow and supports faster metabolism.

HYDROTHERAPY

Hydrotherapy balances blood flow anomalies, improves nervous system functions and tissue tropism, it has positive effect on metabolism and skin, it also improves peripheral blood flow which lowers heart´s responsibility, and it stimulates the immune system.
KINESIOTHERAPY
Individually chosen physical activities in kinesiotherapy aim at defeating limitations or recovering full spinal joints and limb joints activity, maintaining or recovering full muscle strength, correcting faulty posture, recovering balance and coordination, nerve-muscle stimulation, and stimulating the central nervous system.
PHYSICAL THERAPY

Laser therapy may be used in back pain, motor system injuries, osteoarthritis, post surgeries, tissue damage.
