Diseases, injuries, operations and age-related wear and tear change the regulatory mechanisms of our body's own function. Our physical as well as mental resilience decreases. Modern physiotherapy counteracts this process with a wide range of treatment options. It reactivates, coordinates and stabilizes bodily functions by exploiting reactions to stimuli that act on the body from outside.

As follows: Stimulation of body and mind = treatment

Treatment may include both active physiotherapy and passive physical measures. All physiotherapeutic measures including necessary aids are subject to prescription. In consultation with the physicians, an individual, disease- and patient-oriented therapy planning and treatment is carried out by the physiotherapist, which sensibly combines active exercise programs and physical measures.

Treatments are multidisciplinary when concomitant diseases are present in the:

  • rheumatological
  • neurological
  • traumatological
  • oncological
  • geriatric
  • pediatric

Ranges are available.

In the case of certain disorders, additional treatment methods such as occupational therapy, speech therapy, etc. can improve the therapy results. Further focal points
are individual counseling in the selection and instruction in the use of assistive devices.
