Anonymous • Neurological Rehabilitation Bahrain May 27, 2023
We really liked the Physiomer hospital, it is very cozy and comfortable here. A big plus for the team, especially Melih, he helped us a lot on organizational issues. The physiotherapists are very patient and kind. Hussein and Zhannan are the best in their business. We have been choosing places where they can help us for a long time and we were not mistaken in choosing Physiomer, our little one was happy to work with this team.

At the Turan Turan Clinic, I had total hip replacement surgeries on both legs almost simultaneously, two days apart. The operation was categorised as complicated. From the very first days of my stay in the clinic until my discharge I was really surrounded by sincere care and attention of the doctor and medical staff and interpreter. I was placed in a very comfortable ward with everything I needed. The interpreter and assistant in the person of Eldar did not leave me a step and helped with translation, consulted, gave useful advice and literally led me by the hand to the doctors where I was examined, from the X-ray room to the anaesthesiologist before the operation. Preparation for the operation, collection of analyses, their study and consultation with doctor Kayhan Turan took little time. Everything went promptly. The surgery was performed by the head doctor Kayhan Turan himself, who has vast experience in orthopaedic surgeries. With his light hand and high level of professionalism, the two surgeries two days apart were very easy. Smith & Nephew prostheses were fitted. Both operations were performed under spinal anaesthesia, which in my case completely eliminated the unpleasant stage of coming out of anaesthesia. I was conscious during the operations. Subsequent rehabilitation took place in a hospital ward, where special medical simulators were used along with exercises to develop the joint and vessels. I am very satisfied with the choice of this clinic.

Hello!
For the first time, I sincerely want to leave a response, because it can save someone's life. My husband suffered a stroke, I will miss the details, as this can draw on the book ... But the point is that this is a great grief, as in principle any disease. After the ordeals and treatment, by the way, among our best specialists my husband could remain disabled. How pathetic it did not sound, but Bookimed was sent by fate. After discussing the diagnosis, my wishes and requirements, we went to the clinic in Laznitzhoe (Austria) And then starting from A to Z I can assure that everything was at the highest level. Special thanks to all the doctors of the clinic, Dr. Anne and the translator Manuel. Accommodation, treatment, medication and accompaniment of an interpreter were included in the price. My being with my husband was also unhindered and cared for me, too. This is not just a course of therapy, treatment, but also care and a wonderful atmosphere of the clinic, the staff and the wonderful nature around. In this all the most important thing is that my expectations from treatment not only justified, but also surpassed. Do not waste time on treatment here, and the sooner you get into a country where people are responsibly treated and their health as the highest value, the sooner you will be cured. I love my country, we pay taxes here, but we can not get quality medicines or treatment even for money and spend only our health, and it's priceless) Thanks a lot Bookimed, I hope that you will continue to keep this level. In the mountain is very important someone's support and guarantee that the services will be of high quality - it gives HOPE))) p.s. World peace

FAQ about Bobath therapy
What is the principle of Bobath therapy?
Patients with cerebral palsy, after a stroke or other damage to the nervous system, suffer from spasticity - erratic muscle contraction caused by a violation of signal transmission between the brain and muscles. Spasticity, in turn, leads to contracture of the joints and muscles (inability to fully flex and extend the limbs), which reduces functionality and limits the patient's movements.
The Bobath technique focuses on reducing spasticity by restoring motor function. The rehabilitation process, for example, of a child with cerebral palsy, is similar to its natural development:
- first, the child is taught to hold his head correctly with the help of special movements and exercises;
- after the technique focuses on the movement of the rollover;
- then the physiotherapist practices the sitting function with the patient;
- after that, attention is focused on walking;
- some patients even manage to work out the functions of running, jumping and writing.
Before the start of rehabilitation, the specialist who will conduct the Bobath therapy determines which functions the patient already performs independently. After that, consistent work begins on improving functionality and mobility.
Bobath is not physical education, it is work with a specialist who works out a set of movements with the patient: stretching, joint development, etc. Therapy is possible even with infants.
Bobath therapy is a combination of exercises:
- positioning - placing the patient in a normal physiological position;
- fixation - fixing provisions;
- inhibition - to reduce tone.
Who is eligible for Bobath Therapy?
Bobath therapy is prescribed for patients with damage to the nervous system (spinal cord or brain) that provoke spasticity:
- cerebral palsy (infantile cerebral palsy);
- stroke;
- spinal cord injury due to a fracture of the spine, trauma, etc .;
- brain injury.
What results can be achieved with Bobath rehabilitation?
The main task of Bobath therapy is to suppress muscle hypertonicity and enable the patient to stand upright. With systematic exercises (for some patients, therapy is prescribed 3 times a day, for others, several sessions a week are enough), positive changes can be traced in all patients.
Some patients progress quickly and significantly, while others recover less actively. Therapy does not cure the patient completely, but it contributes to a significant recovery.
In children with cerebral palsy, especially those who are diagnosed early and are prescribed Bobath therapy immediately, there is significant progress, as their joints are more pliable, and functions (holding the head, turning over, sitting) are just beginning to form.
How long does a Bobath therapy course last?
The course of therapy is prescribed individually. Its intensity and duration depend on the patient's condition. Therapy can be repeated after some time. The minimum recommended course is 1 month.
