Rehabilitation after surgeries and injuries is a controlled process of restoring mobility, strength, and quality of life. Even if complete recovery is not possible, the program aims to restore the patient's physical condition, emotional comfort, and social activity.
In our vertebrology and rehabilitation center, the recovery process is conducted after:
- Injuries and damage to the musculoskeletal system: fractures, dislocations, sprains, ligament and meniscus tears, sports injuries of varying degrees;
- Spinal surgeries: removal of intervertebral hernias, stabilization and decompression interventions, correction of deformities;
- Joint surgeries: hip, knee, and shoulder joint endoprosthetics, arthroscopic interventions, ligamentoplasty;
- Neurological and post-traumatic conditions: radiculopathies, neuropathies, chronic pain syndromes, mobility restrictions (contractures), muscle atrophy, posture disorders, and chronic pain.
Quoted: «Early initiation of rehabilitation increases the chances of successful recovery and helps prevent complications, including the risk of disability.»
Principles of Successful Rehabilitation
- Individual approach: the recovery program is developed considering the diagnosis, age, physical condition, and goals of the patient.
- Early start: physical therapy begins as early as possible in the absence of contraindications.
- Complexity: combination of therapeutic exercise, physiotherapy, manual techniques, and other modern rehabilitation methods.
- Gradual load and pain control: the intensity of exercises is increased gradually, without overloading the body.
- Regular monitoring of progress: adjusting the program according to the dynamics of recovery.
- Restoration of function, not just symptoms: the goal is to return full mobility and quality of life.
Comprehensive Rehabilitation Program
A multidisciplinary team works at the center, collaboratively developing an individual program that accounts for the physical and psycho-emotional state of the patient, which includes:
Movement therapy: regaining control over movements, reducing pain, improving physical condition.
Neurac (Neuromuscular Activation) method: restoring muscle balance and coordination of movements, enhancing joint stability.
Physiotherapeutic procedures: improving blood circulation, reducing inflammation, accelerating tissue regeneration.
Manual therapy: relieving muscle spasms, restoring joint mobility and normal functioning of the nervous system.
PRP therapy — a modern biological method that stimulates tissue regeneration and reduces inflammation.
Additionally, massage, kinesiotaping, and dynamic taping are used to accelerate rehabilitation and improve the overall condition of the patient.
Rehabilitation methods are chosen individually, taking into account the patient's condition, movement capabilities, age, gender, and the specifics of the disease. Special attention is paid to scar processes, which can alter movement mechanics and cause discomfort or pain.
