Treatment Programme

An integral part of the therapeutic process is the Occupational Therapy (OT) which uses treatment methods to develop, recover or maintain the daily living skills of patients. The treatment and exercises performed on neurophysiological basis are structured so that each 2-hour session contains approximately 40 minutes of OT or Ergotherapy. Here, the therapy intervention focuses on adapting to the environment, modifying the tasks and teaching the patient necessary skills to increase the participation and performance of daily activities. Optionally, it can include educating the client/family on what exercises or adaptations should be implemented when the patient returns home.

The massage is performed by a highly-qualified masseur and it takes between 45 and 60 minutes. It is an inseparable part of the treatment program, as it serves muscle regeneration after an intensive proprioception training (proprioception being the constant physical sense and continuous perception of one’s body movements; thus used as the cornerstone for rehabilitation programs). The massage as a healing method has an extraordinary importance in the treatment and after-care. It is a set of grapples that the masseur applies onto the body of the client. Masseur stimulates the skin, subcutaneous tissue and particularly the muscles, which improves skin blood circulation, releases muscle tension and removes stress. The massage enhances the effectiveness of other treatments conducted the same day.

Thermo-Cryo contrast applications have a facilitating function for the blood circulation and muscle tone normalization; they also help to prepare the body systems for the intensive neurophysiologic training and proprioception. The hot/cold elements are applied individually on respective body zones to activate the motor systems before the intensive and long therapy.

During the fango/mud wrap treatment, the warm mud with natural substances is applied directly onto the body of patient. Moor mud (also known as therapeutic peat moss) is an organic substance, product of natural decomposition of multitudes of plants and consists of organic residue of herbs, flowers and grasses. It has an unusual concentration of acids, minerals, trace elements and vitamins – all in a form that is easy for the human skin to absorb.

There are many benefits of the moor mud treatment. It promotes blood circulation, stimulates the immune system, fosters muscular relaxation, relieves the pain, detoxifies the organism and improves the range of motions. Among the numerous positive effects of the mud application, the following are particularly relevant for our patients: the reduction of muscle tenseness, improved nutrition to the bones, cartilage, intervertebral discs and connective tissues.

During the manual therapy, the joints, spine and soft body segments are treated manually by a specialized doctor. The application consists of several diagnostic and therapeutic methods, which serve recognition and treatment of functional disorders of the gross motor functions. De-blocking of bones and muscles is achieved through special loosening and grip techniques. Among others, contractions are diminished, muscles relaxed, head and trunk control is corrected.

Magnetic stimulation in the ADELI Center is focused on the treatment and enhancement of the organism using the pulsating low-frequency magnetic field. Long-term experience and numerous clinical studies show that pulsating magnetic field produces much better results than the static field. The effect of the magnetic field is localised at the interface of cells in the tissues and is based on the change of electric potential on the surface of cells.

This phenomenon leads to the following reactions: pain relief (analgesic effect), regeneration and deep-tissue massage, promotion of metabolic processes, acceleration of cell regeneration and of the healing processes, slowing down the inflammatory processes, elimination of muscle tension and swelling, harmonisation of the autonomic nervous system, strengthening and stabilisation of bone tissue and mitigation of joint and muscle pains.

The stimulating polarised light of the bio-lamp has the ability to penetrate deep into the targeted structures. Then it acts specifically on the cell membranes, enhances cellular metabolism, and thus greatly accelerates the regenerative capacity and the healing process. It reduces the perception of pain and prevents inflammation in the tissues. The light energy is absorbed by the tissue which it gradually penetrates, causing effects which are very important from the therapeutic point of view. They include augmentation of energy, strength and endurance, increased binding and transport of the oxygen in the blood, reduction of blood lactate after physical strain, increased resistance to stress and so on. The disease and degenerative processes in the cells are slowed down and from this perspective, this phenomenon is of strategic importance for the further course of the treatment processes affecting the entire body.

During an oxygen therapy session, the patient is breathing a mixture with up to 85-90% oxygen – whereas normal air contains only about 20%. This treatment improves the oxygen supply to the entire body – and particularly to the brain – and thus facilitates many therapeutic effects, such as higher energy and faster regeneration after an intensive neurophysiology. The oxygen therapy supports the metabolism of the brain, which is of a high significance for our patients. Through breathing pure oxygen, the emotional and physical conditions of the patient are visibly improved, especially by increasing the stress resistance and reducing the consequences of stress.

The magnet-light-laser therapy has been rapidly developing in the recent years. Due to its high effectiveness and wide-range application in every field of medicine, it is currently considered one of the most promising methods. Therapy session works as a gentle push, which activates self-regulatory mechanisms of the body. Metabolic processes in cells and tissues normalise, the organism is cleansed, and blood circulation is improved, particularly in the weakened and diseased organs. The defensive means of the organism that cope with diseases are improved and the organism is recovered. It has been clinically proven that, in some cases, the magnet-light-laser therapy effectiveness is 98%. Besides, in comparison with other methods, the recovery time shortens by half, while the physical and mental power of the body is considerably raised.
