Specialist in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation

Physical medicine deals with the application of physical methods for the treatment of organ damage and functional disorders, as well as post-operative and post-traumatic treatment, e.g. with electrotherapy, thermotherapy, hydrotherapy or massages. The aim is to restore the best possible functional capacity. Rehabilitation includes methods that reduce the permanent or imminent consequences of organ damage and functional disorders that lead to disability and disadvantage and thus make it easier for patients to integrate into society, e.g. functional movement, training and relaxation therapy or joint and spinal mobilisation.Specialists in physical medicine and rehabilitation create a rehabilitation plan tailored to each patient.
