About diagnosis, treatment and recovery
Why can aquatic therapy be beneficial in neurological disease?
The buoyancy of water supports balance and reduces fear of falling, so balance, coordination and gait work that is difficult on land can be done more safely in water.
When can aquatic therapy begin after stroke?
The timing depends on the clinical picture and is decided individually through the joint assessment of the neurology and PMR team.
Does warm water increase fatigue in multiple sclerosis?
Water temperature and the program are tailored to the patient; fatigue is managed to plan safe work.
How does aquatic therapy improve balance and gait?
Buoyancy and water resistance retrain balance, and the underwater treadmill supports the gait pattern.
I cannot swim; can I receive neurological aquatic therapy?
Work is carried out in a controlled environment with balance and safety equipment; swimming ability is not required.
Is aquatic therapy safe in patients with spasticity?
The heat of thermomineral water helps soften tone and spasm, and the program is adapted to the clinical picture.
How are in-water gains transferred to walking on land?
Daily-life movements are rehearsed in water, then transferred through transition to land and long-term follow-up.
How does the process work for patients coming from abroad?
With visa, transfer, accommodation and medical interpreter support, the process is planned from file sharing to follow-up.
